I keep waking up very early in the morning and can't get back to sleep. I've been writing at this time. I think today because it's so early I am going to attempt to read and go back to sleep, but I realized something about the character in the story I'm writing and also, about life and things.

I made him too attached to the female character too quickly. The whole story now carries too much tension. I need to make him indifferent. It's hard to write from the male perspective. For me it's: this is how I view you, but I don't know how you actually are, so I can only hope that your emotions match your face.

Yes. You have hit on what it is to relate to your average man. Or at least, me.
