And for some people‚ love is fluid‚ ever changing‚ and everywhere‚ and is felt for family‚ friends‚ partners‚ pets‚ and even inanimate objects‚ dead artists‚ and fictional characters. None of these people would be right or wrong‚ but one thing

best friend. I have spent my entire life putting everyone else first. Sacrificing my own wants and needs to accommodate those I love and even those who I felt the slightest affection for. I am responsible for allowing others to take advantage of me‚ to control me‚ to change me‚ and to destroy me. As far back as I can remember I have longed for someone to love me.

even though its not about the characters of the story. The characters and actions are completely made up. The ’’Greasy Lake’’ seemed to just imitate the song and take on its a free spirit. The "Bad boy" image in the "Greasy Lake" was admired and planned as the boys days continued‚ it was not original.
