In the story Mirror Image, I relate to Jenny the most. Jenny’s current relationship with her sister, Alice, is like my brother and mine. Whenever my brother and I argue, I respond the same way Jenny does. Jenny and I are awfully distant. Similar to Jenny restricting her sister from reading her diary, I also have expressed harsh “whatever’s” to my brother. Just as Jenny is, I am also passive-aggressive.

Most people view a perfect relationship as a relationship where two couple love each other and there is no dispute. To be honest, there is no such thing as a “ perfect relationship”. If the was a perfect relationship, two people who love each other later in the future would not start to lose some or all of the feelings they had for their significant other.
