“We met in 1995. I was in grad school and had a job at the campus women’s center. I helped her hang an art show. We later hung out at a feminist science fiction convention. We’ve been together ever since.”
“How do I get myself to understand what love can really be, after the initial sparks fade?”
I couldn’t acknowledge that this was unsustainable, that my life wasn’t the novella I had convinced myself it was.
