Her Story

She wanted to tell him her story. Maybe if she told him her story, then he could write about her story. She could then read what he wrote and be pleased, instead of thinking about her story by herself and feeling sad. If he were to write her story, and if others were to read and like his story, then they would be reading and liking her story, and she would feel heard. She could then share her story by sharing his story, and whatever positive comments he would get on his story would really be about her story. If the story were to get negative views, however, then she could tell herself that these were about his story, about his writing, rather than about her and the story she knew in her head.
