1. Why do you care so much about what I think? Why are you giving me that power?
Because I respect you. You're one of very few who really listens, who really understands, who really cares. Of course I care what you think.

2. How would you feel if someone opened up to you the way you opened up to me?
I agree with Chopin here.

3. Is the knowledge that people did the best they could or all they could do at the time (even if they walked away) healing in any way?
It might help when I'm a bit more mature. And if I could believe they did do their best.
