Heartbroken.
Heartbreak is interesting for the redeeming quality it gives to the offender. You almost pity him (less often her) for causing you pain. Almost.
Women are in as much pain (or more) as men are when something went unthinkably wrong. You might choose not to believe me. But do not forget that women have a much more sentimental view of the past: they bond to places and to moments in time, and not as much to people. We live in a past and a fantasy of what WAS. What IS is important, yes. But time is both our servant and our master and we serve it better than it serves us.
Contrary to some opinions, women are not necessarily inherently evil. Some are merely heartbroken, hurt, bleeding a pool of pain inside their hearts. Some women are victims, not victimizers. And most women suffer worst when seeing the men they love hurting because of their actions.
We are not the enemy. You, dear men, are the enemy we seek to vanquish and overcome before you yourselves destroy our independence and our most intimate selves. Before we become the puppets that you would so gladly wield.
Remember that.
