To him who shines the most, I offer my heart

Is it morally acceptable to become consumed by an obsession? Have I inadvertently disrupted the delicate balance of a romantic relationship between two individuals? Is it morally reprehensible to desire nothing more than to possess her, to have her completely and exclusively? She is the center of my universe, the very essence of my existence. My purpose in life is intrinsically tied to her. I harbor an intense and profound love for her, and the mere thought of her being in the arms of another fills me with anguish. In matters of love, the line between right and wrong becomes blurred, and we all succumb to the irrationality and vulnerability that love entails. Therefore, it is not within your jurisdiction to pass judgment upon me. For even in the face of moral ambiguity, one's actions can be justified by the depth of their love.
