As a kid, also because we didn’t have women, I was very platonic. Let’s say that I am a world expert on platonic love, then going on I realized that I want to be understood and this is not easy. At the moment, however, I am enough on my own, I emotionally nourish myself with the passion for cooking and I am okay. Then if there is someone who manages to kidnap me along the way, I’m happy. “
