I think they loved each other and he was supportive but she left him because she wasn’t strong enough to juggle her focused successful-career-oriented discipline with his drugs-depression-insomnia-fueled lifestyle, felt herself allowing herself to slip into his shadow (as all that childhood programming demands), and wasn’t willing to let her career become roadkill..
I think he’s moved on too… but sometimes, late at night, still thinks about how it could have been, and feels the layers of anger, guilt, resentment… it feels like shes doing it deliberately to hurt him (and its easier to forget, that way), but perhaps he ultimately knows shes not, and his final thought is to mock his own cynicism.
