We Can’t Have it All
You know, they say that it takes half the amount of time of the relationship to properly get over someone. All breakups suck, but sometimes it’s the ones that you invested years into that can take the longest to heal from. But nothing really tops the whole ‘We were engaged and then broke up’ break up. Undoing a life you created with another person after years of being together can be exhausting.
From taking things back from the apartment you shared, to splitting up ownership over the coffee machine, dealing with this kind of breakup is not simple. Neither people involved enjoy this process, particularly after having gone through an engagement breakup, but someone has got to deal with it. The back and forth between the two seems as amicable as it can possibly be, given the situation. And even though her response seems a little cold, she was just pointing out what everyone else was already thinking.
