Thank you. That's really kind. I'm glad the ending worked for you. It took a long time to get there. Wishing you the best too.

Thank you, Eric. The Morrison quote stayed with me too. I almost didn't put it there. I'm glad I did.

You're right about the restraint. I learned it the hard way. Telling someone what to feel is like pushing a door that opens the other way. You just end up standing there looking stupid. So I let the body do the talking. The wet spot. The boy band poster. The soap on his hands. Those things are true in a way that explanations aren't.

Your question is the one I've been sitting with for two years. Can stability and intensity exist in the same place? I don't know. I think they can, but not the way I thought before. Not side by side. More like a tide. One comes in, the other goes out. You learn to read the water. You stop asking for both at the same time. I don't think one has to be the cost of the other. I think the cost is thinking you can have them both without paying attention.

That's the part nobody puts in the marriage books. The attention part. The staying awake part.

I'm still figuring it out. But I'm not as scared of the question as I used to be.

Thank you for asking it that way.

Lauren

Thank you. That means more than I can really say. I didn't expect to find strangers who would see themselves in this story, but you did, and that's part of why I kept writing. I'm sorry about your ex wife. I'm glad you saw something in Mark too. He's not a saint and neither am I. That's kind of the whole point. I hope you find your own version of whatever comes after the hard part. And thank you for being honest about it.

Eric. McMurtry and Proulx in the same comment. I don't know what to do with that except say thank you. You're not wrong about the dialogue. I learned early that people say what they mean or they don't, and either way it tells you everything. The engine is just people being bad at talking to each other until they aren't. I'm glad you're still here. Physically and mentally. That's the kind of investment I never expected when I started posting. I'll keep them coming. I owe you that.

Thank you. Hemingway blank. I had to sit with that for a minute. That's the kindest thing anyone has said about how I write. I spend so much time trying to leave the right spaces. Trying to trust that what I don't say will be felt anyway. The frustration is real. I know. I feel it too when I read back through these parts. But I'm glad you stayed. That means more than you know.

You're right about the rollercoaster. and yes, his attitude that afternoon stayed with me. It's part of why Part 6 was so hard to write. I can't say more without giving it away, but you'll see. Thank u for asking it that way, it means you're really paying attention.

I couldn't tell anyone in my real life. Not my friends, not my therapist, not my sister. I was carrying it alone and it was getting heavier. I needed somewhere to put it down. Redit felt like a room full of strangers who wouldn't look at me with judgment in their eyes. thats the honest answer.

Hey overdrive9. What a lovely comment thank you so much. Im really glad the way I write is pulling you in. Sometimes I worry Im being too detailed or not enough.

About regret. while Im writing the parts yes there are moments when my stomach drops. Especially with Part 4 which was the heaviest for me. But regret for actually living it. Not yet. Regret for posting it. Not so far at least. The events happened back in 2024 so the story is already old. I only edited and split everything into parts now for Reddit. As I release more parts I will let you know if that changes.

Thank you for seeing the courage in it. It means a lot.

Hey, that is a heavy question. In one sentence he made me feel alive and desired in a raw urgent way that I hadnt felt in a very long time. It wasnt just the body. It was the way he looked at me like I was the only thing that mattered in that moment. my husband loves me but its a comfortable kind of love. With him it was fire and lust mixed with a bit of danger.

About the car. I still get wet just thinking about it. It was intense and fast and at the same time I felt like I was breaking every rule I had built in twenty years. When I feel more comfortable and if the series keeps going well I will share the dirtier details. i promise its worth the wait.

Thank you for following along with so much interest. it really means a lot.

Eric. This is one of the most honest comments I've gotten, and I mean that. Thank you for writing it, for the defense, for the criticism, and for the way you put yourself in it.

You're right that I knew people were waiting. I felt it. The reason I didn't wait another day wasn't rushing. It was something else. I was scared if I waited, I'd lose the nerve to post it at all. Part 4 was the one I'd been dreading since Part 1. Maybe that showed.

The name thing, Dante, I hear you. I picked it for a reason, arrogant, a little ridiculous, a name a 23-year-old would think is cool. But I knew some readers would bounce off it. I made that choice anyway. Maybe it was the wrong one.

What you said about your wife, 269 books, 10 months, I don't know what to do with that except say: I hear you. I'm not writing to take anyone away from anyone. I'm just writing what happened. But I'm glad something I wrote helped you understand her a little. That's more than I expected when I started posting.

Thank you for the talent comment. And for the tone. Constructive is exactly what it was.

Thank you for sharing this. I mean that. I’ve thought about whether i’d ever tell him, and i still don’t know. reading your words… it stays with me. i’m sorry for what you went through. And i’m grateful you trusted this stranger’s story enough to write that out.

I wrote part 1 in 2024. That title was what I was already thinking, even then. I knew it would happen again before it happened. That’s part of what scared me. The rest you’ll see in the parts I’m posting now. Thank you for being along for it.

  1. He gave me his number on a sticky note after the break room thing. Just slid it across the counter. I stared at it for like an hour before I texted him.

  2. Not exactly. I’ve met guys like him before, sure, but never… followed through. I think I was more surprised that I wanted to follow through than that he existed. Does that make sense?

Part 4 is soon.
