One thing I hate being a nonFacebook user is hearing, "You don't know because you're not on Facebook". grrr.... Good luck with the time you're going to spend reflecting. Even if it leads to a breakup, you will have had more time to devote to other things that need your attention. :)Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13343266339544990170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508082009734036722.post-61924171179637961812016-03-15T18:38:03.162-07:002016-03-15T18:38:03.162-07:00Loved the ending!!!!

That makes it easier and less of a time loser. I only spend a certain about of time each day - set a timer and be done!
