"Do you ever get the feeling that when you show someone your affection for them, you are assaulting them? Like you should probably leave them alone?

Something almost always gets broken. In my mind it runs like this: I'm going to like you, whether you like it or not. I'll wear you down until you relent and swallow this big lie I have for you. Don't move. Don't live. I love you."
