I've always liked this song, but recent events has made me think of it in a different light.

My fiancé/girlfriend for 4 years has recently cheated on me. Since then I started talking to another girl, not to get back at her or anything, just to get things off my chest since she was cheated on as well. We have become good friends, and talk a lot.

My girlfriend came into town and we went to a party together. She wanted to leave early to finish up some homework/wasn't interested in hanging out anymore. My new found friend was the one to drive me home that night.

The main line in this song for me: You can't go on, thinkin', nothin's wrong. Who's gonna drive you home tonight?

I am very hurt, and I can't see how things can go back to normal with my long term relationship. It really sucks to end something that has lasted so long, your life changes completely. But this song makes me think of who is really taking care of me? The person I once loved entirely (that can barely trust anymore), or this girl I have just recently found who would actually do these things for me. I can't continue to think nothing is wrong.

My Interpretation

I had to say something seeing as your post is recent.I have a man that I've been with for ten years now.In around our fourth year he cheated and physically left for a week.We had huge problems.I lost everything and stuggled with my job for a while.We stuck it out.It isn't always great but if you can't be without them and this is not a pathological cheater than start talking.Come to some resolve to talk it out then put it in the past.It's hard as hell but it can work.I worked very hard to kewep us together.He threatens to leave...

@forueinahpets God works in mysteras ways. I think it was meant to be for you to be with the second girl. Your new friend.
