Transcript

Who they were at the end is exactly who they were the entire time. And the faster you can accept that, the faster you can heal and move on. You keep asking, how could they do this to me after everything we've been through? Because you thought everything you've been through together would matter when it came down to how they treated you. Because it mattered to you. That's why this hurts so much. And now you're searching through years of good memories for a reason not to believe what they just showed you. But that person you're wishing would comfort you is the person who causes this pain. And maybe that's the hardest part. You would have done anything to keep them from feeling the way they left you feeling. You thought their love would stop them from hurting you like that. Because yours would have.
