If the one I cared about most was no longer with me, I would be seriously hurt and even depressed. Once your with a person for a while, not being around or with them is hard. It feels like if your time is not spent with them, then your time is not wroth spending.

Even though Karen and her boyfriend are now separated she's actually been taking it pretty well. I think I would be very devastated if that was me. Overall the story is very interesting and has plenty of details.

Remember Britt, your job is not to retell the story! Pick a response question! Good format and developed response, even though it is primarily plot information.
