How do I explain to a fucking neurologist that I need my brain scanned because I’m too obsessed with my wife? That I’ve been so void of feelings for so long, I now can’t stop feeling things. That I’ve been laughing, smiling, and lusting over her. That I care. And that there is no logical explanation other than a tumor. Or some kind of brain-eating disease that’s causing this. Because I’m not built to feel love. And yet, I think I do. So naturally, to avoid being sent to the psych ward. I lie.
