#still sadder about having to quit rowing than I've ever been about a breakup

[ghavialis]

If I'm not writing about our relationship as if it were a sports injury we didn't really have one I'm sorry babe

#a pattern. I am starting to notice! #never read the plays right. called fouls before a hit ever came. in fairness. I faked most of my injuries. #I am not on the sidelines. mainlining electrolytes. I caught my breath long before I hit him. one of us had to end up on #their back. out of breath. feeling like the fist came out of nowhere. it was a knockout round. you really didn't see it coming? #I don't start these things. i finish them. it takes negotiation to work me up to a fight. I'd never lose. you'd only get #hurt. neither of us wants this. can you hit me the way that I like? #something about the way the thing you loved can hurt you so much it's impossible to keep doing it. and you'll grieve it forever #still sadder about having to quit rowing than I've ever been about a breakup
