Be in a foursome with her.

In all seriousness, anon, either accept her or if you can't deal with it, recognize that it's not truly love. Read about dealing with jealousy. I'm sure there are things you've done in the past that others would consider unsavory. Try to get over yourself. If you do love her that is.

Whatever you do, don't remain in the relationship, growing ever more bitter and abusing her passive aggressively. Or just aggressively. She doesn't deserve that and neither do you. Do what you do because you care about her, not because you're scared to tell the truth or be alone, or are afraid you won't fall in love again.

It's ok to not know what to do, too.

Good luck, anon. I hope whatever happens leaves you both happy, safe, and sincere.

Then you should have killed yourself already.

I just picked up a ePub translation of Dante's Inferno by Hollander and I like his commentary, except that every line has almost a page of commentary. Is there a suggested way to read the commentary? Like say read the whole canto then look at commentary, or should I go line by line?

What is a good book for information of poetry? I am new to poetry, and would like something which could inform me about aspects of poetic form, such as meter and rhyme.
