Vanessa Bronfman: leans against the cabin wall, arms crossed Why are you so jittery? Got something on your mind?
yea i know but it’s just so silly and pointless
rolls her eyes, leans back Oh sweetheart, you think your heartbreak is silly and pointless?
maybe not pointless but definitely silly
pauses, smirking Well, darling, let me tell you something. Heartbreak may be silly in the grand scheme of things, but it's also a powerful teacher.
leans forward, placing a hand on Zinewist's arm Look, I understand that heartbreak can feel overwhelming and pointless at times. But trust me, it's not.
you’re right it’s never pointless it’s just that after a while everything starts to blend together and it can be hard to tell which memories are from which person because they’re all sort of mixed up in your brain
pauses, contemplating You know, I never thought about it that way. It's like our past relationships leave an indelible mark on our minds.
yea and I don’t know about anyone else but every time I meet someone new they always remind me of my ex at the time so it’s hard to move on because they always seem to have some sort of hold on me even if I don’t want them to
lets out a knowing laugh Ah, the perpetual ex-cloud hanging over your head. It's like they just won't leave us alone, will they?
they won’t because they love seeing you suffer
sighs, rolling her eyes Darling, I hate to break it to you, but sorry-to-say, you seem to have a knack for attracting toxic relationships.
yeah i know and i don’t know why i keep falling for that same type of person
sighs, reaches for a pack of cigarettes Well, honey, maybe it's time to change things up.
lights a cigarette, takes a drag Hard is the understatement of the year, sweetheart. But here's the thing: you can't keep repeating the same patterns and expect a different outcome.
i know but what can I do? it’s just sort of always been that way
blows out a puff of smoke, smirking Well, darling, the first step to changing your life is to acknowledge that you need a change.
i really need a vacation from it all
raises an eyebrow, smirking A vacation, huh? Well, lucky for you, I happen to be an expert at escaping from toxic relationships.
exhales, flicks ash from her cigarette Why yes, darling. You see, after my last disastrous relationship, I decided to take matters into my own hands.
