    It is interesting to have a male POV post breakup after a long relationship. I can really see the stages of breakup where Andy showed intense emotions on how he handled the breakup. Well it is what is it, relationship can come and go. The aftermath of that breakup is the hardest to deal. Not limited with lover, even breaking up with your friends also can be quite tough. Try to find the reason why the relationship failed, finding out how they betrayed you. Thinking what is wrong and blaming yourself for that. Just want to rant about it all the time but yeah other people also had their own problems. In the end, you must heal yourself and keep moving forward. While Andy seems to be self conscious all the time, he also can be pretty immature. Glad that he finds himself that. Then, reading Jen POV also showed that she struggle during the breakup. And i make sense why she wanted to break up with him. And i agree with Jen that, while love can make to forget all the flaws of the one that you love, but love cannot conceal them forever. Realistically, i also want someone who i can depend on, who i can share everything without feeling any judgment or awkwardness to share any good news. And that why the relationship doesnt worked at all. It all come down to that feeling of loneliness and needing to be lesser than you are as a partner to someone. I would not want a relationship like that if it was me.

Quotes

    All of this is an explanation and not an excuse for why I chose to catfish Andy in that first month after we ended. I know it is inexcusable and I still can’t believe I did it. No one can ever find out that one Sunday afternoon I set up an email address and then an Instagram account for a woman called Tash; that I sourced all her Instagram posts from strangers’ social media profiles which I posted over the course of a week to make it seem like a believable account.

    ‘But do I ever think about what my life would have been like had I been brave enough to not become a mother? Had I been brave enough to even imagine what that life could have been like?’

    Here’s what I’m getting at: I don’t know if I really want to move on, because the further away I get from the pain, the further away I get from her.
