“He uses me – uses all of me so I am lit and glowing with love like a fire, and this is all I looked for all my life – to be able to give of my love, my spontaneous joy, unreservedly, with no holding back for fear of his misuse, betrayal.”
— Sylvia Plath, from The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath; entry dated 6th April 1958
