"From an early age, I've understood the power I hold captivating everyone around me: "A Goddess," a title I've embraced as I've learned to wield my charm and confidence. Of course I can get anything I desire, including her, just like everything else I've set my sights on." ... "Every second with her feels like torture. Arrogant, full of herself, and a fucking attention seeker-basically, she embodies all the worst qualities you can think of.

Or is this something deeper-something dangerously close to feeling?
