To celebrate my newfound freedom:
PROMPT ME:

Last time I got through the first half-dozen; this time it is my goal to surpass that.
And...go!
ETA: Prompting closed. Thanks for playing

(Love is not the issue.
Because, really, it never is, it’s just what people would like to believe the issue is. It makes it that much easier; it makes it less of a failure on your part, individually or as a whole, and turns it into something that’s just not meant to be. Like when the other person decides they never want to get married and crushes your dreams of fairytale weddings and ‘til death do you part and then you shrug it off and pack your things, and suddenly you never really loved them at all - for the record, she left that part of herself somewhere on the plane to Boston, to Harvard, years ago.)
“I don’t know what I’m doing wrong; I don’t even know how to do this.”
The remote’s within reach and she silently wishes she was the type to throw things. Instead, she lets her hand shake at her side.
(She’s not entirely convinced that Mark ever had that part in him to lose.)
“I see more of her than I do of you. And I know that you haven’t spent all that much time around her but she is really not the kind ( ... )

I agree with the above about this line. Just...I love this take on them. It's heartbreaking, and real, and just so, so perfect.

I think I prefer your version to the show's version. Yes, already. Because I know the show will make it melodramatic, and this doesn't even touch melodrama. It's realistic. And that's what makes it so wonderful.

Anyways. Perfect. ^_^ I especially love the last part about the fairly insignificant things, because it's so in character.
