People come and go, and that’s life, but it is ridiculous how so many of my friendships follow the same pattern, where a woman idealizes me and puts me on a pedestal, then turns her own idealized version of me against me, getting angry and jealous if I reveal a hidden part that doesn’t fit onto her canvas… And it’s always, always artists and writers.
