It might sound selfish, yes, but I couldn't think of anything positive at the moment. I'd ran away a day before my wedding, so I was already imagining myself hearing Jess break up with me. I think... in spite of our great time together, perhaps we just wouldn't complement each other the way we were supposed to.
