I've extended the olive branch too many times to count, and every time it was the same. I can't do it anymore, start again, when the end is already written. The only thing that gives me any comfort is that I've been reassured that You isn't in it for the long haul. I'm not sure what he's in it for, but he's sworn up and down that the future will not tie them together. The only thing I'm left with, is knowing that I'll still be here to pick up the pieces. And, I might have some better stories to tell then. The onlything remotely funny about this, is I told You this would happen. I mapped out his relationship, and so far, everything has gone by the book. And, I told him this would happen to us, and he acknowledged that I was right. So one day, maybe in a year or so, he'll be back. I'll need him to stand up in my wedding, after all. One can only hope we don’t patch it up.

That is, if he is with her for the long haul! Sorry to hear about all these complications.. it sounds so messy that I think you have made the right decision to keep a distance between you.. who knows, maybe in the future you might patch things up, people change.. sometimes.. and if she sees all this with fresh eyes maybe she will realise what a fool she's been.. Then again maybe not, but you made the decision to make both of you happier which is always the correct call.. hope it untangles itself anyway! hil Its sad when friendships end.. it sounds like your friendship with the boy will also fade away as has your friendship with the girl..
