“A month ago it would have been my dream just to be in his bedroom watching a movie, but now it’s torture because I want so much more. It’s like my entire conscious state has been reduced to this toxic blend of hope and uncertainty. I hate that I have to act cool and almost pretend I don’t like him when in fact I do, because, God forbid, I come across as desperate for attention or a little clingy, which everyone should know are perfectly natural human behaviors, after all. Ugh!”

“Do you act the same in society as you do in private? Do you speak to everyone the same way?””No, no quite,” I replied, wincing. “Of course. No one does. You put on one disguise for society. You put on another for your sister. For your parents. Your customer the other night.” I felt my face warm. “But what about in private? Anyone can be themselves then without–ah! Ow!– without putting on an act.” “We do not remain the same each minute to the next. Every word you hear, every sight you see, every smell, every thought you have, every moment—it all changes you. We keep putting on mask after mask, layers over layers. That’s how one grows.”
