"...treat her as a friend and be there as needed..." Did you steal that from the Wedding Crashers manual or something? You wanna know what helps? Honesty.
Sure, it's painful. Sure, it's bad timing. But how can you make it not painful to break up? And what would be good timing? Rip that band-aid off, baby.
Guess that makes me a monster, huh?
I'm so very tired of a world filled with good intentions and little white lies. You can't little-white-lie yourself outta this situation in good conscience. Well, unless you're a nutjob who enjoys the drama. This isn't about his long time girl gaining a few pounds or his unsatisfied desire to pound her ass, it's about a 20 year sentence and a ruined future.
I've made plenty of mistakes and told plenty of white lies and I always carried the rucksack of regret. I ditched that approach last year or so and it's been liberating.
