Victoria and I met up in Boston for a couple days last week. I had been pretty busy with summer research, and was looking forward to finally spending some time with my girlfriend.

The first day went fine, I lost my way and we ended up having to backtrack a couple blocks to find the hotel. Went shopping in CambridgeSide Galleria, and had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory there. Things seemed a little awkward, but I thought it was just the time we had spent apart.

On the second day though, when we finally sat down and talked, a couple… issues came to the fore. We discussed it long into the night, and finally decided that the best thing to do would be to break up now. This may come as a surprise to some, but such is life.

So, as of right now, Victoria and I are no longer a couple. The reasons are complicated, and I won’t discuss them here, but we parted on good terms. I wish her the best, and I hope she finds happiness in her remaining years at Wesleyan.
