We mutually ended things and I would have preferred to keep a friendship with her as I didn ' t like the idea of cutting somebody off , although she both had serious trust and entitlement issues and couldn ' t move on .

They kept talking about how young I was as just couldn ' t get over it . It felt weird . Here I am battling the same feelings . It ' s the circle of life .
