So if you’ve been betrayed and you’re scared and exhausted from all the anger that’s come out from both of you and you suddenly feel that possibility of committing to each other again and there’s a part of you that just wants to let things ride, DON’T.

Now that we can begin to talk to each other without going nuts, we have to start repairing that damage.”
