Episode 3120:
Sarah Von Bargen answers a reader who is in the middle of a breakup she did not choose.

Quotes to ponder:
"You can't control your ex's decisions, you can only control your responses to them."
"It means that they weren't the right person for you right now."
"Do so many fun things that you're too busy to think about whats-their-name."
