  • I know it's hard to believe people when they say I know how you feel.

  • But I actually know how you feel.

  • You see...

  • I was, um...

  • seeing someone back in London.

  • We worked for the same newspaper.

  • And then I found out that he was also seeing this other girl, Sarah.

  • From the circulation department on the 19th floor.

  • Turned out that he wasn't in love with me, like I thought.

  • What I'm trying to say is...

  • I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible.

  • And how it can actually ache in places that you didn't know you had inside you.

  • And it doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get or gyms you join or...

  • how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends.

  • You still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how...

  • you could have misunderstood.

  • And how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were that happy?

  • And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he'll see the light and show up at your door.

  • And after all that...

  • however long all that may be...

  • you'll go somewhere new.

  • And you'll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again.

  • And little pieces of your soul will finally come back.

  • And all that fuzzy stuff...

  • those years of your life that you wasted...

  • that will eventually begin to fade.
