“But that was years ago. I didn’t expect that you would still be in love with her after all these years.”

“It killed me inside when she dumped me like that. You have to live that to know what it feels like.”

“I’m not trying to diminish what you went through. Megan was awful to leave you in that situation. She should have broken things off with you before they got that far.”

“Yes, she should have. But she didn’t always make the best decisions.”

“How can you still love her after she treated you so badly? That doesn’t make any sense to me.”

“I can’t explain it. I know it’s idiotic. But it feels like it’s out of my control.”

“And the way I feel about you is out of my control.”

“What are you saying?” Benson leaned forward.

“I’m saying I’m in love with you. But now I don’t want to be. Because you love someone else.”
