“I am certain that I was in the wrong about almost all of it. I was so toxically jealous of Bennett that I made it impossible for him to be around me”

The next time didn’t come until the early aughts, when we were living together in a big, crappy apartment in Greenpoint. A few months out of college, we were both struggling to find our footing in New York as professionals and as writers and also, though we didn’t realize this yet, as anything that could be construed as adult human beings.
Consumed with this jealous resentment, I failed to notice that Bennett didn’t seem so ecstatic about his awesome writer’s life. He was blowing deadlines, not getting enough exposure to daylight, distracting himself with romantic misadventures, and running dangerously low on cash. The Dream could be kind of a nightmare.
So yes, I can’t remember the exact horrible things we said to each other, which is probably for the best. I can remember Bennett falling to his knees, red-faced, possibly crying. The fight finally culminated in Bennett stomping out of the apartment and me — most shamefully of all — calling his parents to collect the money he supposedly owed me. It wasn’t even a lot of money.
