Dude. Men do shit like this to women ALL THE TIME.
I felt like I was waiting for it to get raw and ugly and it didn’t. He softened the blow again and again.
It's absolutely nothing new. "I'm ashamed that I'm such a dick, but heh heh check this out." I read it because my 17-year-old son thought it was brave and honest and disturbing. As someone who's lived 50+ years, I can tell you the things he did are actually pretty mild, unimaginative and just plain BORING. The narrator is not-so-secretly pleased with himself, though he (badly) pretends he isn't. And perhaps that's the point? Yawn.
I have not read this book yet. I was told about it by a friend said you have to read this it is just like that guy you dated said it was just like the hurt he put in me we loved one another at least he said it was love. he has passed away never know the truth after 35 years from the beginning of what we he called love I gave all the love I could he gave love hurt pain scars,, ready to read hope to learn how to get over the past and the love still in my heart. could be something wrong with me...
time line is wrong started in 1979
Actually yes I have had premeditated pain inflicted on me but I wasn’t an asshole to other people and didn’t write a really stupid book about it
i think this is a really ignorant thing to say to be fair. you can’t validate someone’s trauma of being a victim of ‘premeditated infliction of pain’ to enjoying this book. The book was a bore and being a victim of this isn’t going to make you like this book. if anything it makes you loath this book. This book consists of someone defend there abusive and violent actions by hating themselves. it’s whiny and their victim complex just makes this book even more irritating.
You are wrong. I was in a highly abusive marriage for 10 years, I am very familiar with intentional pain. Not only was this book one of the biggest wastes of my time, it was highly ridiculous. The author wanted to be validated because "what goes around comes around", which is not true as a general rule by the way.
The truths discussed here lead me to believe this is too hard for me. I’m sorry for the pain people feel. I can’t open that can of rotten worms now
This does not feel like fiction
Well said, Jup. Ignore all these judgmental idiots. It's fiction and should be praised no matter how dark it is.
