Just the way that I saw this/related it to my life is how you can be utterly in love with someone, and sort of feel like you don't deserve them. You kind of put them on a higher pedestal than yourself, and compare yourself to everyone involved in their life or around them. Also, how you can be with someone who has done a lot of wrong to other people, but have it set in your mind that they don't/would never act that way towards you, because they love you, or you think they treat you differently than anyone else. This person makes you feel good about yourself, makes you appreciate/love yourself for once because the appearance they put on, the fact that they make you feel different and unlike the others, and the combination of you already being fond of his appearance. Perhaps it's sort of how you feel with your first love, like 'the one' thats always going to stick with you.

You fight for them, and genuinely care about them but when you finally come to realize they aren't the person you thought they were, you kind of lose it and enter an angry state, your emotions going from deeply caring about them to hating their guts and wanting the worst for them.. A normal human reaction to a lose of someone, or at least to me. But in the end, with all their flaws, and all their mistakes, you're always going to love them. Even when they treat you like crap, and you know you deserve better, regardless of the grief, or in this case 'grim' blanket they put on your life, for some reason you're always going to care deep down in side. I think he uses the title 'grim reaper prince' because these sort of situations suck the life out of you.

IDK.. JUST HOW I SEE IT AND HOW I RELATED IT TO MY RELATIONSHIP. I'm really stoned though, lulzz

can't wait to see these guys next week.

You don't need weed to be a flake ;) And I use the term as one of pure endearment.

Would you PLEASE stop thinking I cannot recognize your writing. Ya know, if you stop writing books I may be a little stumped...for a moment or two ;)

At least you didn't give your own comment a plus rating.
