"I don't love you anymore."
"I can't love you."
You want me out of your life.
I understand.
But you said you don't love me anymore.
You are lying.
You say these words out of love.
You want to protect me from the terrible things you have to do.
You want to protect me from the nasty people you work with.
You don't want me to get into trouble.
Your words come from love.
You lied.
You lied to protect me.
