One life / But we're not the same

[MichelleLT]

I truly believe it's a guilt thing. The reason they play the "let's be friends" game is so they don't have to feel even more guilty about what they did / are doing. It's like being friends / on friendly terms shows empathy/sympathy/forgiveness.

At some stages, I think they love the delusion that they could come back at any time. It makes them feel desirable.

I just had to stop playing that game cuz I couldn't take it anymore. And he didn't figure it out til after the D finalized and I was dating someone else.

Their loss right? If he ever bothers to give me any money, that would be awesome. But I can't say I'm expecting it, so it's not like I have it spent already (although that would be nice spending money for the Hawaii trip in August....)
