I was in a relationship for close to 10 years before and I call him a friend now too. He doesn’t exist solely in the context of the fact that we used to date.

Although I call him a fucking asshole more often, because he is lmao

I'm sad they broke up because annoying people should stick together.

Why was he even asked about this? God, reporters--entertainment reporters in particular--need to stop being so online.
