There is a memetic, shared language used when people talk about love and the loss there of. Our first, or biggest, love -- the one which all else will be compared to.
Because I am who I am, I've multiple of those.
I have never felt that I am that for anyone. Never was, never will be. And though a part of me wished that wasn't the case, it has seemed as factual to me as the sky is blue, and the sky will mostly always be blue (uh, you know, sun sets and sunrises and storms, etc not withstanding) and no amount of wishing it to be another colour is going to change that the sky is probably gonna be some shade of blue. Even if you do wish it to be another colour, you're probably comfortable with this fact.
What if someone pointed out to you that you've some sort of disorder or defect of your eye, that means that you're seeing the sky as a colour that it isn't, that it is in fact the colour that you wish it to be?
I got angry.
I've a kind of cataracts that means I can't see my importance in other people's lives. My lack of importance feels as factual to me as the sky being blue, so whilst I wish I were more important, it is a state I've become comfortable with. So I became angry with someone who challenging that.
