Quote:

When nobody cared for me, not even myself, he was there for me. When Jack, Dave, Johnny, Steve and Mike wouldn't text back, he was there for me. When the nurse told me I should go easy on getting raw-dogged by strangers from tinder... you know who was waiting for me.

From the moment I walked into Adult World and spotted him, I was smitten. I fell in love harder than ever before – it may have seemed reckless to others, but it felt unstoppable, especially when I started convulsing on the high-speed rabbit setting after the mass dosage of Zanax kicked in.

The chemistry was wild, yet also manifested itself in fiery arguments, like when he was too "tired" even after I'd changed his batteries that morning. And it got worse. Despite meeting me in Australia, it turned out he was born in China and moved here when he was young. My mother, a proud Vietnamese at heart, was furious when she heard. Couldn't he have just told me from the time I pressed start, instead of his hiding his true origin in tiny writing on the battery panel?

Looking back, it seems petty. Why couldn't I just have enjoyed all those nights curled up together, one hand barely keeping the wine bottle from spilling onto my jizz-stained carpet, the other reaching for the 'so you're gonna be a cat lady' DVD?

The breakup was the worst I've experienced. Once he didn't turn on, I was stricken with grief. Not to mention the guilt. I barely slept for weeks and kept wondering "what if, what if, what if… I just turned him off once a week?"

Goodbye my darling vibae, and thanks for the batterings.

I once had a GP, who seemed unfamiliar with the concept of asymptomatic diseases, slut-shame me by saying that if I was "taking the proper precautions", I'd never need to get tested. I suspect he may have gotten his medical certifications from an overflowing bin.
