If you’re anything like me it will take a few brutal discards, but you will still go back for more.

We want that one last hit of “they give a fuck” but what we get is a few more hits of“they don’t give a fuck.”

Nothing worse than trying to extract love, compassion, and empathy out of someone who doesn’t fucking care, and never did. Talk about emotional hell, here you will find it at this stage in the game.

But it’s too late, the chase is on

You will plead, beg, borrow and steal with anyone who listens. As you try and plead your case as you look like the mental one, not them. No one will understand your emotional hell, not even you.

It’s a cruel way to go out, being brutally discarded. Left feeling hopeless, useless and pathetically broken.

It got to the point I was the one leaving every time by the end of the relationship. It’s when I would speak any truth to her on my way out the door is when she’d make sure that fucker was locked tight, at least until she needed me again.

She had silence mastered
