I know this was written long ago but this quarantine got me in the Twilight mood and this was amazing and heartbreakingly sad which is what made it so amazing

I don't know if you ever check anything on here anymore, but I just wanted to let you know that this is probably my favorite fanfic. I come back and reread it at least every few months and love it just as much every time.

Ugh they are both frustrating! You can tell that they both probably feel the same and if they just spoke about it, they could probably fix it but they're both so stubborn about expressing their feelings, if you can't have communication in a marriage then whats the point?!

I want to call it beautiful. But 2 people who refuse to communicate is t beautiful. So, we’ll call this lyrical. And I’ll rename it for you - “how to destroy a marriage for dummies”.
Now, I’m going to help this pair out. “Edward, I would really like to go back and finish my schooling”, “why wasn’t I invited to the family luncheon?” “Why is this person standing here with her hand o. Your face?”

I read this seven years ago (almost eight now) for the first time and whenever I read it again I feel like it touches me in a new and profound way. I love this story and I wish we could read more about this Edward and Bella.

Also, I love All Too Well and I’m loving Lover so so so much.

She has PTSD?

Excellent story. Brilliant, inspiring writing thank you.

Wow, just wow. This was an insane ride. Don’t really know what to say. I usually avoid stories like this, but this one captured me. But damn, it made me so sad. At the end I almost wished that Bella and Edward would end it and maybe start over maybe a year later. They are toxic so each other. And they needed help, cause I don’t know how they ever can go back to what they were.

I wish though you would have given us an epilogue. Cause I really want to know how they turned their life around.

But thank you for this emotionally amazing story!

Love,

At least they are talking. I figured that Edward wasn't stupid about Kate wanting him.
But, Bella should have cancelled Jasper and gone grocery shopping with Edward.

At least Bella has the guts to bring up that they do not talk. Marriages go through ups and downs. It is like Renee said, yo have to know how to get to the other side.

I would have confronted Edward with Kate. Something like, "We are still married".
But he wants her to come home for a week so I don't think he has given up.
These two need counseling.

Whoa! They just need to talk to each other.

Sorry I have not reviewed until this chapter. This has been on my TBR for years and now I am wondering why it has taken so long to read it. The writing is fantastic!

I want to shake them both of them and tell them to just talk to one another. I don't think anything is going on between Edward and Kate, but not for her not trying. I trust her about as much as a wolf in a hen house.

I am not sure what to think of Jasper yet.

Wow this was so heartachingly beautiful. You have such a way with words that leaves such a resonating longing behind, I’m in awe. This has been hard to read at times, although I do love my angsty fics, as it’s so real and raw and filled with passion. I’ve loved and broken along with BE throughout this and I’m so glad it ended the way it did. Thanks for sharing something so deeply sad, yet equally beautiful.

This is the second time I’ve read this story. My reactions haven’t changed...sobs, deep sadness, twisted insides, my gut aching. They are caught in each other webs but I like to think that their intensity will mean that they will live passionately into old age. But each of the moments leading up to that end will be at times exhilarating but also suffocating. I loved this story, your writing is superb and it destroyed me. I couldn’t sleep last night mulling over Edward’s preoccupation with Kate and neglect of Bella. It was beyond painful to read. Angst doesn’t describe this tragic story. It’s a destroyer and a heartbreaker but I’m a real fan of yours. You are a Master of your craft...thank you.
