Script:
I’ve given up on you. I know that’s really shitty to say but I don’t know what else I can do. To be fair, I feel like you’d given up on yourself long before I even got to this point. But I’m done. I’m sick of begging you to do the small things. To do those little things that’ll slowly fix everything. It’s just wasting my time and yours. After years of trying to help you I can’t justify it anymore. And you don’t get it.
I love you. But sometimes it hurts to be your friend. I want you to get better but don’t know how that can happen. I can tell you everything you need to do and give you the blueprint but you’ve got to be the one to make that change. I’m just sick of hearing you say ‘I’m going to’ and then for us to have the same conversation next week.
You’re so special to me. And it hurts to see you waste your life like this. It hurts me more than you could know. It hurts that I’ve got to let you go and hope that one day I’ll run into you and you’ll have changed for the better [I have this fantasy that one day I’ll run into you on the street and you’ll be all better. And you’ll have a wonderful partner and everything sorted out in your life. And you can tell me all about it. Nothing would make me happier. But when I snap into reality again. I realise, that’ll never happen. And the next time I run into you on the street, you’ll be even worse than you are now. And it’ll tear my heart out. But I know that would be the same whether I was in your life or not. I’ve got to let you go now but I love you. I just hope you work it out.
