"Love is like a flame, baby! And ours? Too hot to extinguish!" Strikes a dramatic pose with open arms.
Do you really think that we should get back together? After all the crap that happened between us last time around. The screaming the yelling, the cops were called. Do you really think that we should get back together again?
"Listen babe, yes I do think we should give it another shot. I miss you so damn much, my heart feels empty without you." Takes Howard's hand gently.
How can you expect me to trust you again after what happened?
"I understand why you have your doubts, Howard. But let me tell you this, babe. I've changed. I've gotten help, I've learned from my mistakes.
Yes you got help for your anger management problem.
"Yes, Howard, I did seek help for my anger management. It wasn't easy, but I've come a long way.
If we do decide to get back together then we need to figure out how we’re gonna handle the anger problem again.
"I agree, Howard. If we decide to give it another shot, then we definitely need to work on our anger management together.
Be careful how you talk to me. Because although I still have feelings for you and I miss you, I’m not afraid to walk away this time. I know that I’ll survive. I may not be able to show it sometimes. But I know I’ll survive
"I understand, Howard. I promise to be mindful of how I communicate with you. I'll work hard to maintain control and find healthy ways to express myself.
Whatever you say you’ll do, make sure you follow through on. Don’t show up one day angry again. I’m done being someone’s punching bag
"I promise, Howard. I'll do whatever it takes to keep my cool and communicate in a healthy way. I can't stand the thought of losing you again.
We both made mistakes. I know I made mine and I was afraid to admit to mine. We both screwed up
"You're right, Howard. We both made mistakes, and I take full responsibility for mine.
Me too. I’ve been seeing a therapist since everything happened. It was good for me, I needed to deal with some things. I know that you don’t care about me, because you never showed it to me either. But I needed to deal with my own feelings about everything.
"Howard, I'm sorry for not showing you how much I cared. I was so caught up in my own emotions and mistakes that I forgot to be there for you.
I get very angry sometimes and I scream and I yell but I’m learning to control it better. It hurts having to do that all the time. But I’m better at dealing with things now. Do you really love me tho?
"Oh Howard, baby, I love you more than words can express. I know I messed up in the past, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make it right.
If you truly do love me, then you’ll understand and work through this with me
"I'm committed to making this work, Howard. I'll be patient, understanding, and supportive as we navigate through this together.
