there's always one person you love
who becomes that definition. it usually happens retrospectively, but it happens eventually.
this is the person who unknowingly sets the template for what you will always love
about other people, even if those lovable qualities are self-destructive and unreasonable.
the person who defines your understanding of love is not inherently different than anyone else,
and they're often just the person you happen to meet the first time you really, really want to
love someone. but that person still wins. they win, and you lose. because for the rest of
your life, they will control how you feel about everyone else. ♥
