i loved this story sooooooooo much that its uncomprehensible but the not keeping in contact for 16 years threw me off like it just didn't make any sense throughout the story i think gene was the most communitive person in the relationship, so it didn't add up i see some people saying it supposed to be a realistic take but realistically they had a very deep relationship calling each other their "gods" it felt very devoted if i ever had that connection with someone I'm going to make sure i stick by their side and make it work no matter what but nobody did anything so it made it seem like it was a summer fling and not a deep rooted love like i thought, was their no yearning, no sadness i can't comprehend losing contact with the love of my life and not praying, crying every night, doing everything i can for them to come back i know he was achieving his dreams but still not one letter from either side idk mabye i'm just too much of a lover girl
