Love sometimes behaves like water from a poorly tightened tap - it seems to be there, but it is impossible to hold on to it. At first, it seems that with a little more effort, it can be fixed, but then you realise that it is easier to shut everything off and walk away. Bridges flare up like matches, and it's no longer so scary to stay on your own side. The red lipstick is back, the heart is back, and even the resentment dissolves. Because choosing yourself, it turns out, is not about selfishness at all, but about survival.
