chad buttfucks sluts while you read books

bros, consider this a warning

if you are easily impressionable and co-dependent on other people, do NOT read about napoleon's life. it will destroy you mentally. you will lay in bed at night with eyes wide open, unable to sleep because you can't comprehend how napoleon was able to have unlimited energy.
he only slept for 4 hours a night , had phenomenal memory and functioned at 100% capacity every single day for over 25 years straight.

don't try to compare yourself to him. your self-esteem will drop faster than a bullet. you will only hurt yourself, as i have already done

Anyone have a PDF of that Johnston 2011 translation?

Every single romance I write ends up drenched in tragedy. I imagine them like a happy movie romance at first, in my head the characters and happy and smiling. Then when it's time to get there I start putting rough shit in the middle. It's like I have to put every kiss or little step toward the happy relationship at the end of a conga train of trauma. In the end my characters are so broken they can hardly function so there's no happiness left, only two sweet people sharing burdens and pain.
Why do I do this?
