" When you find the person you are supposed to love, you will know by staring deeply into her eyes. Well, that's a deal breaker for me.
It is hard for me to explain why it is so difficult to look into people's eyes.
Imagine what it would be like if someone sliced your chest with a scalpel and rummaged around inside you, squeezing your heart and lungs and kidneys. That level of complete invasion is what it feels like when I make eye contact. "
