I knew someone who had amnesia and they did the same thing. That other version of themselves feels like someone entirely different from who they know of themselves. I also do the same thing with my past self (the depressed, suicidal teen who was an addict to almost all vices) since she is her and I am me. She was a neglected child who needed help and I am a healed and functional adult who is mostly independent. It’s not entirely wrong to view a past version as someone else but I do agree that him being jealous of his own self is therapy worthy. I think it’s made worse because she never brings up their “married life” before his “accident”. She’s making him worse.
Yeah she’s at fault too cause she hasn’t supported him at all and honestly it makes sense cause he’s still the guy who tried to kill her but yeah their situation is fucked up. Then again seeing the past version of yourself as an entirely different person when your present version is a better one, maybe cause you don’t wan to be seen as that different cause you’re not like that anymore, I totally understand
I only feel bad for both of them. He is literally lost at sea and she’s his lighthouse. If she ever decides to stop being his guiding light, he will be plunged to eternal darkness until she graces him with her light again. At the same time, he is literally her dark shadow. Always there, always watching and she knows what monsters lurk in the shadows and what they are capable of. He needs her but she doesn’t. She’s only staying put because she’s being threatened. I’m sure if she told him now “your brother threatened me and that’s how we got married”, he would understand and probably kill his brother. Then it would be problem solved. The only thing is to prevent him from going psycho killer once he’s back but it’s kinda obvious he’s gonna go psycho killer so I’m not holding onto any hopes.

The veins are so big like holy blood pump but idk how to feel about the plot during their sex (i mean him talking about his past self like another man which is crazy btw vro deadass needs a therapist) but insane smut worth the wait
