The Breakup of Friends

It's often said that you don't appreciate something until you've lost it. While I haven't lost anything of import lately, my friend Scott did. He and his boyfriend broke up yesterday and I just found out about it. I feel really badly that Scott will have to go through a breakup because breakup's suck, especially since they were about to move in together and Nathan just freaked out or something.

When bad things happen to other people, I often self reflect on how I would feel if I wore the shoes in that particular situation.

I'm so glad I have Brian in my life and that we are willing to work on our problems. No couple is without problems and it's great that we can communicate to each other on how we are feeling and what we're going to do to fix it.

I wish Nathan did the same with Scott. People don't realize that successful relationships take lots and lots of work.

On another note, why are all of our couple friends breaking up?! Brian and I wondered aloud today if we are the cause or if we're next in this Langolier-type madness.
