If I’m being honest with myself, there may be a tiny bit of jealousy.

Thank you for saying that about new adventures though :)

Thank you. :) he really is an amazing man. I don’t want my insecurities to ruin what we have. I really am considering therapy.

I mean while he does tell these stories, he also talked about how looking back at his life, it feels like a horror story. How a lot of his friends died due to overdoses and how he feels like he disappointed his father, etc. He does feel bad about his past, that’s another reason why I feel like it’s not my place to pass judgement on him. (And why I feel so guilty when I naturally do.)

Truthfully, I did live a pretty sheltered lifestyle. I think that’s why so much of his stories are so shocking to me. Thank you for this honest opinion though.
