So I’m like really bad at breaking up with people. I have this fear of hurting the other person, which leads me to stay in relationships far longer than I should. I haven’t been good at it since I was younger – I think my first boyfriend dumped me (since he was in college and I was in high school), I dumped my second boyfriend on the phone, and my next lover cheated on me, so that ended that relationship. As I aged, I became less callous and more caring. I was married for a long time, and I can tell you that it took me 5.5 years to finally screw up enough courage to get divorced!

 So what runs through your mind when you start thinking to yourself “you know, this isn’t working for me?”
