"you deserve someone better than this. someone you can show off; a woman who won't constantly embarrass you; a creature worthy of your respect, and that's clearly something i don't have the ability to ever attain. i'm merely the filth under your shoes."
"all i ever do is infect your life and waste your time; you've said so yourself incalculable times. i know you must remember that. and you know what? you shouldn't have to taint your image and broadcast this walking parody for the rest of the world to see."
"i'm merely the inconvenience you seemingly can't get rid of, right? don't you see? i'm not suitable for you. i'm sorry, but i can't be the woman you want. i'm so sorry i'll never be good enough. i'm so, so incredibly sorry that i won't ever be who you need me to be."
"i realize i'm not worthy of you and that i'll never be remotely close to being entitled to your affection. so, would you start respecting yourself the way you always should've done? will do us both a favor – pack your bags and leave me. go find someone better. please. "
