I love you. I want you to eat well. I want you to feel full and nourished. Eat me, won't you? I am all flesh, bone, and marrow for you, my angel.

i won't explain myself any further but. y'know. my thesis on love.
[image description: two images, mostly black text on a pale pink background.
the first image is a cycle made of three parts, flowing in both directions. the three parts are labeled "consumption", "confinement", and "codependency" with "co" in parentheses. in the middle of the circle are the words "love as:", so that the viewer will read it as "love as consumption", "love as codependency", and "love as confinement".
the second image has text split into three columns.
the first column is titled "codependency" and subtitled "i need you because:". the points are as follows:
"i can't live without you"
"you have changed me in some vital way"
"you are necessary to my continued survival"
"i am not myself without you"
"we are intrinsically connected"
"you made me what i am / make me what i am".
the second column is titled "confinement" and subtitled "i need you, so:". the points are as follows:
"i need you to be protected -> i need to be the one to protect you -> i can only do that when you're near me"
"don't leave me -> you can't leave".
the third column is titled "consumption" and subtitled "i need you to:". the points are as follows:
"be a (deeper) part of me"
"sustain me"
"be unable to leave me".
end image description.]
