And what does he say almost immediately after that? That his life began to be filled by her? That's a line more often used romantically, clearly. Besides crying due to abuse and crying because you're having sex are always going to be for two very different reasons. To me I can only believe that he meant he'd replace those memories of crying because of someone's abuse with crying because of pleasure. Even as an ACE person I'd prefer the latter.
being obsessed =/= being in love
this reminds me of a streamer who revealed when she was crying her eyes out in front of her ex bf he stuck his hands down her front and tried to make out with her
thinking women want to be consoled with sex and seeing a woman cry and getting horny is zero emotional awareness and intelligence but let me stop before i get too woke

he's sees her being physically, emotionally and verbally abused and his reaction to seeing her cry is: "hmm i wonder if she'll cry like that while under me getting fucked"
edit: apparently i'm a PuRiTan for having something to say about a man seeing a woman in an abusive and stressful situation thinking about fucking her despite literally having hardcore smut in my profile lmao y'all are braindead
