Get the tell me when to go mug.
Part 2

The identity talked to the the guy through live streams and asked him questions. Eventually it asked the right question and got the same answer the girl got, only slightly different. The girl thinks she understands now but is still skeptical. She wondered if the guy broke up with her for other reasons. Was she not pretty enough? Did she act too weird around him? Did she do something wrong? She could recall many times that she has acted weird, or didn’t look her best, and did things a good person wouldn’t do. She was very obnoxious at times, and she once admitted she liked them too when someone told her they did. Of course the guy found out about it. So the girl believes that was the reason the guy lost interest, and broke up with her. She misses him so much and knows she's done him wrong, but does not know if he feels the same. But we will never know their future. Until it happens.
I told you it would be sad. I'm sorry. here's a tissue. This is a true story that I've experienced. And I regret lying to everyone about me having split personality disorder. And I regret the choices I've made in the past. Hopefully my friends will forgive me one day.

Get the why are you telling me this mug.
You can't tell me is a way of life. It is when a person will do whatever he or she damn well pleases. If you attempt to tell a person to not do something, not only will they do it on purpose, but they will respond wit hthe phrase,"YOU CAN'T TELL ME"
