Breakup Conversation Over Ambitions

This is why I don't think that we should be together.

And I've thought about it a lot, and this is what's gonna happen.

Okay? I'm gonna keep pursuing what I'm pursuing,

and because I'm doing that, it's gonna take up more

and more of my time, and I'm

not gonna be able to spend as much time with you.

And even when I do spend time with you, I'm gonna be thinking about drumming, and

I'm gonna be thinking about jazz music and my charts and all that.

And because of that, you're gonna start to resent me,

and you're gonna tell me to ease up on the drumming, spend more time with you

because you're not feeling important, and I'm not gonna be able to do that.

And really, I'm just gonna start to resent you for

even asking me to stop drumming,

and we're just gonna start to hate each other, and it's gonna get very...

It's gonna be ugly. And so for those reasons,

I would rather just, you know,

break it off clean.

Because I wanna be great.

And you're not?

I wanna be one of the greats.

And I would stop you from doing that?

Yeah.

You know I would stop you from doing that? You know that for a fact?

Yes.

And I barely see you anyway?

Yeah.

And when I did see you, you'd treat me like shit because I'm just

some girl who

doesn't know what she wants, and you have a path,

and you're going to be great, and

I'm going to be forgotten. And therefore, you won't be able to give me the time of

day because you have bigger things to pursue.

That's exactly my point.

What the fuck is wrong with you?

You're right. We should not be dating.
