I think we need to take a break from each other. Date a few other people. Make sure that we are really right for each other." Date others? I suppose y...ou already have someone in mind? Have you been seeing him behind my back? Why now? Why didn't you do this a year or two ago?"I reached out and took the ring box out of her hand and then I turned and walked away without saying another word.Was I upset? Damn right I was! But mid-terms were coming up and I was determined to keep my GPA at 3.75 or. I restated my objections to Ty and his outrageous behavior and that was pretty much the end of the conversation.After reaching out and being rebuffed, I resolved to wait until my sister called me.
