The problem with this article is that the metaphor is too vague. There could be many interpretations. Metaphors are great, but when it ranges from Mark cheating, to being a fake/asshole, to a fake on social media/dating apps and isn’t what she thought he was, to being gay because of frankfurt hotdogs, it gets messy. Good writing isn’t supposed to be THIS vague. Metaphorical, yes, but when too many directions can be taken, the author’s meaning isn’t elucidated clearly enough and it verges on bad writing. I’m sorry…but this isn’t very good :/
