Title: Chapter 35: Chapter 28
I'm so glad you updated girlie!!!
First of all, let me say that this was the most amazing chapter. I loved how you really broke down Justin, and how you showed his true brokenness so damn well. I felt like I was in his head, and I felt my heart ache, just like his did. He's just gone--it was heartbreaking to read.
I was so in love with this entire chapter until I read the last sentence. It seems so painfully obvious to everyone, even to himself if he would just listen. He's not in love with Amelia, and every fragment of his body and soul has been tainted by Charlotte.
Charlotte is his true love. He's happy with her, and it's just so exasperating that here, even at his lowest moment, when he has nothing left but to really think about the situation in his home, with his parents, the only people he can be truthful with, that he chooses the wrong truth. How can you still choose to walk away when the answer is so obviously blatant and right in front of you. And if he loved his parents that much, how could he possibly not even take in their advice?
I think...I think this is the chapter in which I, like Justin, have finally reached the end of the rope. I've teetered on the edge of liking and hating Justin for his irrational and obvious flawed thinking. But reading this entire chapter, how can he be so stupid? I've fallen out of love with the man.
Any man that is that much of a coward, and is that truly afraid to really admit his feelings, despite his pain, his obvious unhappiness, and utter disdain for life, is someone that I can no longer respect. I admire his loyalty, but I'm afraid loyalty isn't enough to make me forgive him for this.
If you continue to decide to go down this path, despite being miserable, even when you know the real answer if you would just get over yourself, then you truly deserve the misery that you're in.
At this point, Justin is hopeless. He deserves his misery. He deserves to sit at the debutante table at dinner and listen to idle chatter for the rest of his life. He deserves to have unfulfilling sex with a condom. He deserves to bury himself in work to try and forget his pain. He deserves to be in a loveless relationship.
That is what he deserves.
Spineless lack.
Anyway--great chapter. lol. I loved it and hated it all at the same time.
On an aside--I miss Charlotte.
Author's Response: Okay this review wins. seriously. lol You hit the nail on the head so many times you drove it all the way home. Your frustration with Justin is completely understandable and you're right he deserves everything he's going through because he's doing it to HIMSELF ugh the stupid idiot *smacks him* Here's to hoping he'll wise up soon. And I miss Charlotte too *sigh* haha Thanks for reading and reviewing!!!
