I never thought I would actually tell Vanessa everything I've told her but I'm glad I did it. And I can't believe I'm about to do this, but I can still tell her part of the truth.

"What? How is this my fault?"

"I was obviously trying to make myself feel better and I just stopped giving a damn about anything."
