First off - and probably more than you ever needed to hear from me. Not true. I'll always be here to listen to what you have to say, Tristan. I don't want you to feel that there's anything you can't tell me. After the lives we've led, I think we both need someone who understands. I can't claim that our experiences have been exactly the same, but we do seem to understand each other a lot. I won't be the one to take that away from you. I'm honoured that you feel you can share all the things you do with me.

I had no idea there was such trouble in your friendship with Justine. My knowledge of the girl is only very peripheral, and the same goes for this Jocelin. Jocelin sounds like an absolutely poisonous man, though. It worries me deeply that Renee still seems to consider him a friend. I'm glad you don't. I feel sorry for Justine if she does, that I can see that if she hasn't learnt by now, there isn't really anyone who can be blamed for that except her.

While it is her choice what she does, who she associates with, how she conducts her life, you deserve honesty as her friend. If you have differences, you deserve to be given a chance to reconcile them. If you don't want to be associated with Jocelin, then you have a right to know that she is. You can't decide what she's going to do with her life. But she should have told you that she'd made a decision, not just left you in the lurch.

It seems that there was a great deal of destruction in these relationships, and they're better off ended. I know it's not easy, especially when you've invested so much. You've obviously tried so hard here. But I think you're right. The only thing there can be now is an end, and I hope your life can be... at least, less complicated for it. I'm very sorry this is the way it had to be, though. I'm glad that you were able to share it, despite the very personal nature.

Whatever you need, Tristan, I'm here.

I think I love- maybe, yeah, alright, love, every word you wrote here. I think I needed every one. Maybe you know just how much hearing this meant to me. I hope you know, you should know, when your words have an impact on someone. They had- have always had- an impact on me, and I don't think I can descibe it, but thank you, thank you, for everything you said. Thank you for meaning it. Thank you for understanding.

Thank you, Tristan, for telling me how much it meant. It is very good to know indeed, when my words have had a positive impact. I'm so glad I've always been able to give that to you. I think you're an amazing man, and you deserve a lot more good than you've had in your life so far. I think it's coming your way, though. I honestly believe there is a bright future ahead for you. Whatever happens, you'll have a friend in me by your side.
