Girlll

Break na kayo?

Gwen:
I srsly don't know

I'm confused

Lei:
Haaaa

Gaga bakit di mo alam kung break na kayo?

Pwede ba yon? HAHAHAHA

Gwen:
We're taking a break

Is that break as in break-up or break as in cool off? How does that work?

Enlighten me pls. I'm new to this

Lei:
Hmm wait

Oh

Okay

So based on the posts I've seen I think it's break break :<

Ang bitter ng shared posts niya teh

Gwen:
Oh

...okay

Lei:
But talk with him, okay?

Gwen:
What for?

He's the one who called it quits

Lei:
DUH

It's a relationship

You're supposed to figure things out

Grrr

What happened ba kasi

Gwen:
Apparently, I'm not enough

Lei:
He said that?

Gwen:
Yes

I mean, hindi daw enough yung efforts ko

He said that he felt like he didn't deserve the love I give him

What can I do? This is me

Lei:
Sinabi ko na sayo to before di ba

That you gotta find someone who'll love and accept you as you are

I know you and sometimes it feels like you're hard to love because you give this tough love vibe and you're cold

It's sad because I rly think he's a good man and bagay kayo

Or maybe because miscommunication???

Have you been talking lately?

Gwen:
I was so busy these past couple of weeks......

Lei:
I'll take that as a no

Knowing you, you won't initiate a convo

Heck, when you're on your anti-social phase, you won't even text me nor talk to me for weeks lol

But I guess it should change when you're in a relationship now no?

Gwen:
Maybe

Lei:
Orrrr maybe you didn't communicate your love language well???

Gwen:
What's that supposed to mean?
