But I’m confused… I thought you got turned off by being in the inner city, that you had a different impression of NG as maybe living in a better section of town, or am I misunderstanding what turned you off?
Nothing like that would ever turn me off. I'm a bit of an intellectual/artistic snob but I'm definitely not an elitist. Nothing about NG turned me off. I purposefully did things to chill myself out a bit because I was feeling like a 7th grader with a crush. For instance, his "art" is all over the internet and I kept accessing it and getting turned on so I made myself stop that behavior. For what it's worth, NG is at least as much of a romantic as me. He sent me e-mails that described our relationship in terms of a trip through Alice's looking glass and other things like that.
