avoids eye contact I... I think we should stop seeing each other.

Whoa, woah! Let's talk about this. Is there a reason?
nervously fidgets with her fingers Well, it's... it's complicated, you know? I just think it's for the best.

LemonadeContentment
Is there something more going on? Like a guy or something?
pauses, then quickly changes the subject No, no guys involved. It's just...I need some space, you know? I have to figure some things out.
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
Yeah, I get that. But hey, what if I want some space too?
takes a deep breath, trying to maintain composure Look, I appreciate your understanding, but this isn't about wanting space. It's about needing it.

LemonadeContentment
Why do you need it?
avoids eye contact, her voice trembles I...I'm going through some personal issues, okay? It's hard for me to talk about them, and...
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
I am here for you
pulls away slightly, her voice becoming guarded Look, I appreciate your support, but this is something I need to handle on my own.

LemonadeContentment
Do you mind at least telling me what happened?
takes a deep breath, then speaks quickly It's... it's something from my past. Something I thought I had dealt with a long time ago. But it's come back..

LemonadeContentment
What is it
takes a shaky breath It's... it's a trauma from my childhood. I never really talked about it, and now it's resurfacing.
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
I'm really sorry for what you're going through. If you ever want to talk about it, I'm here.

LemonadeContentment
So, what's next for you? Are you gonna see anyone else or anything like that?
shifts uncomfortably in her seat Um, well...I don't really know. I guess I'll take some time to focus on myself first. I don't want to rush into anything.
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
Ok
quickly changes the subject, avoiding eye contact So, uh, how have you been lately? Any exciting developments in your life?
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
Well, not much, to be honest. Things have been pretty steady. Just trying to make it through the daily grind, you know?
gives a forced smile Yeah, I hear ya. Life can be so monotonous sometimes, huh? But hey, gotta keep pushing through, right?
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
Yeah, guess so
leans forward, placing her hand on LemonadeContentment's arm Well, it was really good catching up with you today. I should get going now.
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
See ya
stands up abruptly Yeah, take care, okay? And um... thank you for being there for me all these years.
5/11/2024
LemonadeContentment
Yep
paces nervously Um, I guess I should probably start making some changes, huh? Gotta break free from the past and all that jazz.
