Circumlocutive Breakup

I’m just gonna come out and say it: Look, we’ve been together for a while now, but it’s felt like an eternity. And no, I don’t mean it in a good way. And I don’t mean to hurt your feelings, but the nature of this conversation is going to hurt anyways so I might as well just suck it up and say it:

But it’s so much harder than I’m making it seem. “Just say it” doesn’t do “it” justice. I’ve been dreading this for so long that I put it off and put it off and put it off but I’ve had enough. I’ve had more than enough.

God, it’s taking everything I have not to swear out of frustration and anger at you, but I don’t want to give you the wrong idea about it. You know the cliché, “It’s not you, it’s me?” Well in this case it’s you and me. You’re you. I never expected you to change. And I’m me, and I’d hoped you never expected me to change, though by looking at your face right now I guess “change” was your ultimate goal. It’s mine too, right now at least. That’s why this is so hard. So I’m just gonna come out and say it
