[ It's alarming how some of the things he says resonate with her, how much more accurately he pinpoints certain truths. She doesn't know how she feels about it because his words aren't wrong.
(Everything outweighs her personal considerations.) ]
I am not ashamed of my past, and from what I know of you and from how you've conducted yourself, I feelas if you wouldn't come to same conclusions that others do—
