If this is how you feel, why weren’t you honest to me on the phone?

I didn’t string anyone along, I felt we both gave as good as we got. 

You may be compassionate but you didn’t make the effort to know me beyond your comfort zone and your own sphere of influence. Of course this made me feel you didn’t value or trust me. 

I certainly never intended to leave a ‘trail of destruction’, but I spoke my truth whether you like it or not. It seems I burned to my own ‘destruction’ and you seemed absolutely fine.

Your lesson would be this: that to be cowardly and then to moralise about love to someone who was sincere, shows you fall short by a different measure. 

We were both adults. Own your part. I strung nobody along.
