DO NOT SKIP OVER THIS! THIS IS IMPORTANT!
Hi! Hello there!
Yes, I know it has been a year or so since I wrote this (not that I'm not currently editing it), but I felt the need to clarify this.Think of it as a warning as to when to not read this story or maybe change your mindset even.
WHEN YOU SHOULD NOT READ THIS BOOK!
1. If you think I am/ the book is promoting toxic relationships.
Yes, I am aware that the relationship in this book is pretty toxic, even though I have tried to edit it to not be so toxic since the time I wrote this. Some might even say this relationship is abusive and all sorts of shit.But there is a difference between writing about toxic relationships and promoting them.
Promote meaning: support or actively encourage (a cause, venture, etc.); further the progress of.
2. If you can tell the difference between fiction and reality.
I have read so many reviews about books and how they all say: this would not be normal irl; would you want someone like this irl; how can someone think this is right; etc....
And the answer I can give is: this is fúcking fiction. It's not real life.For example: just because I write about a murder mystery, doesn't mean I want to get murdered. Just because I write about an unhealthy relationship, doesn't mean I want one.
Fiction meaning: literature in the form of prose, especially novels, that describes imaginary events and people.
See what I underlined there. It's not freaking real, so remember that when you want to read this book.
3. If you think the message of this book is: you can't fix yourself; if your loved one leaves you, never heal and mope over them for years; stay in an unhealthy relationship; etc... a bunch of shit.
Did Shakespeare want to say in Romeo and Juliet that you should end your life when your lover dies? The answer: NO!
Books can have many messages, yes, but you can't just base off a book with one message, that might be entirely wrong.
With this book, I am not trying to say that you should stay in an unhealthy relationship if you still love them, it's not what I'm trying to say (check number 2 again), or that you need someone in order to fix yourself.
Everyone heals differently. For example: when I started writing the first book in this series (before) I was in a shitty fucking place, but then I found writing and it changed a bunch. Truth is: you can have someone who can fix you, but you shouldn't base your whole life off it, your entire happiness.
Everyone heals differently, that's the thing.
4. If you think I am promoting rape or abuse or any other thing. Check number one again and come back.
I know sexual assault, and assault in general, is a very serious topic and like, I don't want to harm anyone with this book. So if this is a personal topic for you, then I'm sorry and I don't mean any harm with this story or to show like I'm promoting this topic.
But yeah, if this is a sensitive topic for you, and you think you might take this book the wrong way, then please don't read it. I don't know what else to say about it.
5. Check these over again and reconsider your options.
Personally, I write about shit that comes to my mind. I have thousands of ideas running through my mind on a daily basis, all are different. These are stories, I have come up with on my own, they have come from my insane mind. I honestly don't even know where these ideas come from (No. I have not had this type of relationship (friendships sure, but not relationships), I am not a relationship expert since I have been single pringle forever since I was a fetus.) I am such a loner, I know, but that's not my point.
What I am saying is that these are stories that I have come up with, found them intriguing and decided to write them down. The reason why I am writing this shit is because I find it interesting.
I am writing this for my own personal enjoyment.
Thank you for reading this. :)
