it makes perfect sense for the man on fire to want the whole world burn down with him

She texted me today. It was more hurtful to me than I imagined it would be. Not that she texted, but what she wrote. How could she be so oblivious? I can’t think that she is doing it on purpose. Maybe she is correct in her assertion that saying as little as possible to each other right now is less hurtful, despite being painful in its own way. I don’t know. I understand less and less about this entire situation. I have to constantly make assumptions because I don’t know or understand and I don’t know how accurate those assumptions are. A vicious cycle of nonsense and disdain. She asked for this. She wants this. She hasn’t shown the tiniest bit of regret or hesitation. So why then is she stringing me along? I need this divorce to be final. I need to know where I stand. I need her to be free of me. I can’t extinguish my own flame.
