what a fabulous song this is. it's about wanting someone who has kind of fucked you over. you really know you shouldn't want to be with him anymore, but logic really doesn't mean a lot when you care about someone so much.

This is me right now :(

@catherineks your statement also works for men. "You shouldn't want to be with her anymore". At 61 I've been through this twice in my life. It was devastating both times but I should have seen it coming and baled out earlier both times. We just want the relationships to work and think that if we only tweak this or that it will work. Not true. Both women were toxic to me and in the long run, I'm better off without those relationships.
