"Maybe it would be better for both of us if we took a step back and spent more time alone. You are always the person I turn to when I need anything, the girl I always think about and regret letting go." He sighed, the thought of letting her go made him feel a bit nauseous but they honestly needed to face reality. "I love you, you are my best friend but maybe we are letting our friendship and history sabotage our relationships."
He pushed aside the plate completely and leaned back in his chair, his chest tight. "Maybe we need to agree to a separation until you have the child and until I figure out my relationship issues." Which meant 2 plus months without her and it made him want to scream.
