Honestly reading this at 1-3am with Lana del Rey playing in the background was a top tier experience. I'd say none of this is romantic to me it feels more like codependency than anything with some lust added in but the fact they ended up together and (selfishly for me) there was no penetrative sex cheating in terms of "their roles" so I never got too upset. It was a tightrope of breaking each others limits. There both could be better people with different partners but the way the both of them highlight the others weakness is as toxic as all the fucking cigs they smoke. They'll love eachother until they get old and die. Alex will 100% be a silver fox and Mr graphic designer will always gain a little confidence before it crashes down. They're perfect together in the name of toxic infatuation. Who knows maybe they'll drive off a cliff together listening to song 7 off that album.
TLDR:
The kid that always got the trophy and the kid that was jealous of the kid that always got one end up together and all the jealousy, lust and infanticide blend in to a modern American perfect couple.
