“the loneliness of the long-distance lover. we love each other. we both know that. but we’re not IN each other’s lives. we love from a distance and come running in a crisis. I don’t know your daily thoughts because we don’t interact that way. this would be fine, except a certain part of me recognizes that thousands of strangers know them. and I don’t want to know you through the same medium that they know you. aside from being too lazy to read other people’s blogs, that’s the main reason I don’t read sex & the ivy. I don’t like being torn. I like being decided. and I’m torn about reading and knowing you better through the prose you spend long minutes and hours choosing, and maintaining my distance from that other Lena. that Lena who is not mine. who is public.”
