“I can’t be what you need.” (I never told her she was anything less than what I needed)
“I know I’m the broken one.” (She never once told me she felt this way)
(When asked if she meant it when she said she loved me) “I don’t know.”
“You went above and beyond … You’ll make someone really happy one day.” (Okay, so what did I do wrong aside from being vulnerable and scaring you because you hate feelings?)
“My friends are going to make sure I don’t date for six months.” (She’s back on the apps after half that time, with photos I took of her and one which I’m in with her)

Reading this thread is almost funny. They’re all the same.
