And the sort of safety in that and the highs and the lows and the serotonin bump, and then it goes away.” READ MORE: Elliot Page Is ‘Grateful To Be Here’ As He Opens Up ‘Difficult’ Transition Journey “And I think that is definitely a pattern in my life,” he adds, sharing that he and Mara are still close. “I think the love and care that we have for each other is it’s very own special thing.

Separate from the intimacy that I write about.” Page and Mara, who starred together in the 2017 romantic drama “My Days of Mercy”, will actually be appearing together for a book event this month.
