Jude didn’t respond to my tears at all. “I’m telling you all this because I don’t think you are done. I think you’re scared, and I think you’re not used to risking much, and I think you got very used to letting him be the one who made every move so that you never had to wonder if yours would be reciprocated. I’m quite familiar with that strategy, believe me. I have emotional stinginess down to an art.”
