If you and I cannot get along, then who will?

My ex Richard is still not really talking to me (we haven’t been face to face in five months), which still bothers me at times. I explain to him why:

"The reason the situation betwen us hurts me is not about you and me – it is about what it is telling me about why the world is so fucked up. If you and I can't get along, can't understand each other, after having been "best friends" and "lovers" – then who will?

This is the reason why the situation between us is making me suffer so much. It is not about you and me – it's about the world, it's about people.

It sort of shakes any belief I would have that there is hope for peace and harmony in this world. And it makes me want to not be of this world.

This is why I was hoping the whole time that you and I would reconcile, this is why I was trying different ways to be friends with you during all these months, this is why I wanted to see you face to face.

That you and I have not been able to reconcile (from what by the way?) really saddens me.

I dream of peace between us, and mutual understanding."
