In this monologue from the play, “Love In The Time of TV”, Alex confesses their love and shares tough feelings with their friend, Jackey.
ALEX: I know you don’t love me. I… I know you can’t control that. You can’t make yourself fall in love.
But I can’t control how I feel either. And I have to say… you’ve used my love for you. I’d do anything for you, and you know it. And I was happy for a while. Almost thought I was winning you over.
But now I see you just like having a lapdog around to feed your ego.
Well I’m not gonna be that for you anymore. I have some self-respect… now, at least. The way you’ve treated me these past years, I can’t help but feel sad when I think about it.
I deserve so much. I deserve someone who thinks of me in the morning. Who kisses my head at night. Who I can see the world with. Grow with. Go through sh’t with. And get old with.
And the longer I stay around here, the less that seems likely. So… do you want to say anything…?
Maybe even… an apology?
