An autistic woman overwhelmed with love for her boyfriend isn’t sure how to express that love without sounding like Hannibal Lecter, sources have said.
Abeer Zaki, 28, loves Cameron Brereton, 32, more than life itself, but no words seem sufficient to tell him how much she adores him. Zaki is reportedly so overcome with affection whenever she sees him that it causes her genuine pain – and believes the only solution is to fully absorb herself into his body.
Zaki said: “Our relationship’s perfectly healthy, before you say anything. We give each other plenty of space, but I also have this need to attach myself surgically to him somehow.”
“This adult man is consistently nice to me and so I must devour him whole like a snake.”
Brereton commented: “It brings me no end of joy to come home to this adorable little creep.”
