"Yes.  No, that isn't it.  I was trying to, but I couldn't.  I couldn't just
leave you in the past."  He stopped and ran his hands through his hair.  How
as he supposed to explain this when he didn't fully comprehend it himself?

"I cared for Megan, but I never loved her.  She did love me, at least she
told me she did and when that happened, I wasn't able to respond, because I
KNEW I didn't love her, not the way she wanted me to at any rate.  Not the
way she needed me to.  I realize I should have broken things off then, I
even knew it at the time, but I didn't do it.  I can't explain why Julia,
because I don't really know.  I'm not telling you this to hurt you, I never
wish to do that.  But you have a right to know."

Julia looked at him, her voice quiet "Can we go home... please."
