The Love Game

They say the game is cruel. They say it will tear you down until you can't breathe. They say it will feel like poison eating you alive because it simply doesn't kill you, it tortures you over and over until you just give in. They say that it is all worth it in the end because it would feel like a nightmare turning slowly into the haze of a dream.

But I knew it was too good to be true...

I had gone through this sick cycle of wanting to accepted and loved only to realize it was never going to happen to me.

Never to me.

However, I also knew that it was too late to turn back, too late to get out of the hole that I had put myself into. It was only a matter of time before I drowned completely, before I gave in all over again. I couldn't let that happen.

My name is Camille Avery and this is the story of how I played the love game.
