“But why would you want to imagine, read or write about a relationship that wasn’t healthy, good or desirable to you personally?”

I genuinely don’t know how to explain the concept of fiction to you.

It’s fun. That’s why I want to imagine, read, write about relationships that aren’t healthy, good, or desirable to me. Because I know they aren’t real but I can still explore the idea of it and what it means. It’s hard to learn only one side of things without having anything to compare it to. What makes a good relationship compared to a bad relationship? Where’s the turning point? Sometimes you have to create the bad to find the good.
