He thought he was protecting me by keeping his distance, and I don't think he realized his mistake until it was too late. He didn't leave me, though. I left him. He didn't need me as much as I liked to think he did. [Short pause.] Surprised? Yeah, I did. Business with a concentration in finance, even though I never did anything with it.

[Long pause. He types, deletes, and stares at the screen before finally responding.] No.
