Chapter 12 Summary

In her next therapy session, Big Swiss tells Om that she believes Keith is following her because she sees the same pickup truck everywhere. Big Swiss brings up adultery and Greta is certain that she’ll finally tell Om about Rebekah. Instead, Big Swiss tells Om that she suspects that Luke is having an affair because he’s working out more. He has new friends in his jiu-jitsu class, including a woman, and he’s changed the passcode to his phone. However, Big Swiss and Luke have been having more sex than ever, and she’s been orgasming during sex with him. Om notes that Big Swiss doesn’t seem upset about the prospect of Luke having an affair. Big Swiss admits that she is also having an affair. Big Swiss tells Om that she isn’t sure what she connects on with Greta, since they have different interests and lifestyles, but she experiences sex with her like a spiritual awakening. Big Swiss calls Greta damaged. Greta falls asleep, a reaction she has long had to highly stressful situations. When she wakes up, Greta decides she needs to end things with Big Swiss. Greta thinks it is not fair for a lover to know everything that their lover is thinking about them.
