So she exaggerates.
And sometimes, yes,
she stretches the truth to the point
that it completely becomes a lie.
She’s a borderline hypochondriac, as well.
And I guess she’s sort of stubborn.
Well, she’s really stubborn.
And… Maybe she IS a tad bit pessimistic…
Okay, maybe she’s VERY pessimistic at times.
… or, actually, the majority of the time.
But does she have to bring me down while she brings herself down?
Yes.
Yes, I suppose she does.
But love makes us do some silly things,
so I willingly descend along with her
because it gets lonely down in the hole of sadness.
And the ladder to happiness is
pretty dang high.
And to top it off-

Did I forget to mention she has bad knees?

Like the way you have delved into "her" inner sanctum and given us a blunt assessment of the real her. Her doppelganger is the truth detective, but one who needs to fit in, unlike the run of the mill doppelganger. Enjoyed this.
