Personally, I think the couple in the first verse never meant to fall in love. Maybe it was meant to be a casual relationship from the beginning, and she, somewhere along, the way fell in love. ex: "...I won't be held responsible ; She fell in love in the first place"
He doesn't understand how he could've ever thought that the decision they made was "wise", and no one would ever get hurt.
In the second verse, His friends deals with a breakup. While his friend tried to forget her and not deal with anything; she couldn't stand the pain and ODed. He realizes how he never truely wept for her, he never truely got over her, just forgot about her for a week.
In the last verse, "We've tried to wash our hands from all of this..." It's clear that they have tried to move on, forgive and forget, so they never talk of the experiences they've encounterd.
