The author emphasizes the complex emotional entanglements that can arise from these unconventional relationships, emphasizing that denial of feelings is both damaging and ultimately futile. The author argues that these affairs are often filled with love but can also lead to insecurity and uncertainty, requiring a constant effort to navigate emotional complexities and manage expectations.
