"no act is selfless, because in the end we do it for our own benefit." 


how is that true, when:


i once thought maybe if i got him to hate me, then it'd be easier for him. maybe then he'd stop crying and he'd stop panicking. maybe his life would be better if his love for me was non-existent. i really just want him to be happy, even if it causes me the most pain i've felt in my life. if he needs to hate me in order to feel whole again then i want him to. he deserves happiness more than i deserve to be loved.
