"But he's going to hurt Mel. Every time he sees me with someone else he might not make a big deal out of it but his feelings would be hurt because of me"
Melissa sighed. "Sorry to be so blunt but his feelings have always been getting hurt, you just didn't know about it yet so you were protected from the guilt. And that's the only thing that's changed, the fact that you're now going to be experiencing guilt every time he hurts. But that's not your fault and it's not his either. Sometimes s**t like this happens. Sometimes you love someone and they just don't love you back, it's the way of the world. He's come to terms with that and you should too"
I took a deep breath and let it out. She was right. I would just have to suck it up and find a way to coexist with Devon despite the guilt
