100% agree. And I think Miles values the relationship more specifically because Phoenix has a tendency to distance people and push them away.
Both out of fear of losing them, and fear that if he lets them in he’ll have to be a better person than he perceives himself to be or else risk disappointing them.
Lol I got what you were saying backward.
Well that’s my perspective but I can see how the other way around could be true easily as well!
