So I'm walking West on 34th Ave between rows of industrial buildings . . . →[More:]with candy-colored clouds to my right and the Empire State Building off on the horizon ahead of me. And I'm thinking to myself:

"Be big enough to give up."

"Be big enough to give up."

"Be big enough to give up."

To give up what? (Please say it's something like soda.)

This weekend, I decided not to be in love with someone.

By way of context

Yes, I was hoping that's what you were referring to.

It's really tough, and I'm so sorry that you have to make this choice. But things will be better, and you'll find new and different ways to enjoy love.

*hug*

How did you do it? I can't decide not to be in love with someone any more than I can decide not to love macaroni and cheese.

You may read that as "decided to start the process of not being in love with anyone anymore."

At least you know you have a functioning heart, a romantic pulse. Doing the wise thing is only easy for robots.
