Milan is an ugly, expensive and unlivable place.
And every time I go back, my heart fills with nostalgia.
Milan was a young love story with a shitty partner that ended bc I had to move away, but I did before I could fall out of love. And now I look at it and say: oof, how many red flags.
Yet my heart feels not the cold anger of a bad breakup, only the longing for what could have been.

I. A Note About Audience I think often about Charlie Jane Anders’s magnificent and heartbreaking story “Don’t Press Charges and I Won’t Sue.” As I read it, one of the story’s goals is to help cis people (that is, people whose gender matches the sex they were…
