I literally had to stop reading and walk away for 5 minutes at "I really wish you wouldn't say things like that because he's one of the only things that makes me happy." Imagine the hell of living that delusional of a life.
In some ways this person was just cool, intelligent, and charming enough to draw you in, but she could only act normal for so long. She didn't have the acting chops or really care enough to keep her truth from people. Because to her it wasn't such a shocking thing to admit. At the time I didn't have much of a reply, because it had all been said.
And once someone says something like that you never look at them like an adult ever again.
This kind of a person is a liability because they'd rather die in fantasyland than live in reality.
