Curtis Sittenfeld Quote
Nin— Jasper said, and his pained tone was a reminder that, however he had transgressed, he hadn’t done so entirely callously. His affection for her was not fake; it just was partial. Or perhaps it was fake, he was faking emotion now, and he had a personality disorder; but between these possibilities, she preferred to see him as inadequate rather than clinically diagnosable. I’m going to do better, he said. Starting now, I’m getting my act together. Don’t give up on me. Oh, Jasper, Liz said. I already have.
