This is so hard. I have like one friend outside of my relationship ):

[dorothyperkins92]

@Thatmonster433 Oh , I'm so sorry to hear that :( Must've been hard for you. My relationship only lasts about 3 months and it's an on-off relationship. After our first breakup , he asked me if I wanted to get back together so I said yes . After a month , I found out that he was only with me because of sympathy. I mean seriously , if it was just because of pity , why'd HE asked ME to get back together? I didn't asked him at all. And the worst part is , he never did apologize.
