breaking up with girls
you know those girls? those girls that, when you break up with them, they refuse to accept it? and they keep trying to win you back even though you tell her that the relationship is unhealthy, that both of you are miserable—needs going unmet—and that she takes advantage of you? maybe even that she takes you for granted? she spends your money and she argues too much and you’re done putting up with it? and yet…she won’t go anywhere. she won’t leave you alone and she starts to hang out with your friends–to further enmesh herself into your life–to try and win over their favor so they take her side (Ed. Note: she never put this much effort into making you happy when you were together, you know…) and her behavior only makes you hate her even more? makes you regret that the relationship lasted as long as it did and the tension keeps getting worse and worse–your resentment and bitterness greater and greater–until you wonder why she’d even try to kid herself into believing that the relationship is now something that is worth salvaging at all?
well, you are Egypt. and that girl is president mubarak.
