I still feel bad for him even after all he did, I’ve been in a similar situation in long distance

I have done this before so I feel him though if he does need to talk to someone he should reach out to more than just her…because in doing that is just making him feel worse. Since she isn’t the best at getting back to him right away.

No. No no no. What is Sandy’s deal? What is happening with Sandy that is preventing her from not responding to that? Is her phone being taken away by her mom? Is she gonna “reply later” and got caught up in stuff? Is she just brushing it aside like it’s no big deal? Why didn’t they talk about this when she was physically THERE?
Mike needed to wake up to this much sooner, but man, I hope he’s waking up NOW. Communication has always been important to him, and his perfect partner isn’t giving him that. He HAS to make it clear that he needs more communication from her, or just end it.

I want to feel bad for him. I really do…. but being a person that was verbally beat down by someone she trusted just like he did to Lucy (albit for different reasons, he was just a royal jerk)… I have a hard time feeling pity for him.

Mike and Sandy seriously need to break up, this is so unhealthy. Besides, they barely ever talk or see eachother so this isn’t a relationship it’s like two kids play acting at having a relationship.
