No self-hating allowed, S. LOL!

Listen, believe me, I know it's not easy that she is still here.

But, you have to believe me that this has to end between them through his own doing. He needs to do this on his own, in his own way.

So, stop talking about her and the going away party, if he talks to her outside of work, why does he talk to her, is he going to say goodbye to her.....you get what I mean, right?

He is telling you to stop and he is saying to himself, she is not listening to me. Its just more of the same. I know you are going to tell me that things are great, you are both more open with each other and thats great. But, on this, you are not hearing him and it is going to piss him off.

She does not matter. She is not important. YOU are.
