A person with PTSD may think or believe that threat is all around, even when this is not true. They may often feel on edge, keyed up, or irritable. They may be easily provoked. This high level of arousal may cause them to actually seek out situations that require them to stay alert and ward off danger. (x)

I didn’t fall in love with you. I walked into love with you, with my eyes wide open, choosing to take every step along the way. I do believe in fate and destiny, but I also believe we are only fated to do the things that we’d choose anyway. And I’d choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, I’d find you and I’d choose you.
"Now, Brian and Justin realized something. Brian knew that if they got married Justin was going to give up a future that he might have in New York where he could be a successful artist and he didn’t want him to sacrifice that opportunity and give that up and Justin also came to a realization that the man he fell in love with was a lion and not a house cat and by expecting Brian to make major changes, he said that wasn’t fair. Are we sacrificing too much? That in no way ever meant in our minds that they no longer loved each other. It didn’t mean that they were never going to see each other again. I looked online, in fact, a few days ago to see how long it takes to fly from Pittsburgh to New York City and it’s 53 minutes. In LA, I have to tell you, it takes longer than that to drive to work and home. So of course they’re going to see each other again. We had said, “Well, do you think maybe they bought a house in Provence? Justin became very successful? They bought this lovely house in Provence where they spend every summer and Christmas and New Years and they go to London and Paris. They see each other on the weekends."

I remember when my mother used to refer to you as “this Brian.”
Just for the record, I’m sorry, that I’m not gonna be your mother-in-law.
