My mind reeled.
"What do you mean? We're fine, aren't we?" I asked, holding onto hope.
"Honestly, Kalynda, I deserve better."
"What's wrong with me?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.
Jake's gaze dropped to my body, and he didn’t even try to hide his disgust.
"It's just...your weight, Kae. It's...unattractive."
Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes. "You're ashamed of me," I stated, my voice cracking.
Jake shrugged.
"I'm just being honest, Kae. You need to lose weight if you want to keep a guy like me.”
"You're breaking up with me because of my weight?" I asked, incredulous.
Jake nodded.
