Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I felt some what bad for this one chick who clearly didn't see the signs of a rebound relationship. She was the target while the guy played her because he was caught up in his ex. It was a matter of time when he'd get back to her. She is pretending that it won't happen but what a sweet naive girl... Anything to believe that she is in love. Its going to hit her hard.
