“He’s gotta feel like my flesh and blood for the betrayal to mean something to me. And we’ve all been betrayed by a girlfriend or a boyfriend or a sibling or a parent, and so it’s incredibly universally relatable, I feel. So to me, Jesse had to be that person um, the person that I would never expect it from. And that was incredibly easy, um, as soon as I met him, I fell in love with him [laughs]. I projected every single one of those things onto him, because he’s you know, he’s so vulnerable, as a human being and he’s so kind of open, and just wildly funny, and uh, his way of seeing the world is so unique. And that was another aspect, I had to be in awe of him, and I had to support him, and support his genius, and to be protective of him and want him for myself. To… to be his boyfriend, really, um in - in every way but a sexual way. So that was — it was all very, very easy. Because I think Jesse is a genius [laughs]! I think he’s brilliantly intelligent um, brilliantly funny um, intuitive, sensitive and his — yet he has this incredible innocence and naivety about him in terms of the people that he meets constantly and the way that he sees the world. So you know, it was very, very easy for me to want to spend every moment of every day with him and you know, steal ideas from him. Um, I love being around incredibly creative and gifted people. I’m not one to get to jealous; I’m usually one to just be in awe of those people and want to just feed off the kind of… the energy that they create. So it was — that was a piece of cake to fall in love with Jesse.” (x)
