I know. Two entries in one day. I just hope everone can stand the excitement?

Chris apologized. Twice so far.

I'm not required to accept.

That's not the way it works.

After all these years I believe I am finally done forgiving him and making excuses for his horrible behavior. He have done nothing but take me (and countless others who have had the misfortune of caring about him) for granted the entire time he has known me. Which adds up to almost 25 years.

He never seriously considered me.

He always thought something better would come along.

I accepted long ago that we were just friends and I really thought we always would be. But as my always wise friend Amy said, 'I think he has become someone who isn't capable of being a very good friend'.

Obviously feeling spiteful and mean many years ago, he said I'd never be special to My Dave. However, it was really Chris who would never appreciate me or respect me like he should. Even though I know he was just trying to hurt me, I have always taken comfort and some sort of pride in the fact that he could not have been more wrong that evening.

Dave has been there for me when I really needed him and I didn't have to ask. He has trusted me implicitly and has turned to me when he felt no one else would understand or care. He never turned his back on me or cast me aside just because he was in a relationship.

Dave never once treated me with disrespect.

But Chris did.

He will not have the chance to disappoint me again.

(I'm sure more than a few of you are thinking: 'Well, it's about damn time!')

Where I've Been. - What's Next.
