My All-Time Top Five Breakups

In homage to my favorite movie, High Fidelity, below is my desert island, all-time, top-five most memorable breakups, in chronological order,

1. Grace Shoemaker (2nd grade)
2. Jamie Lujan (senior year)
3. Lisa Bishop (college)
4. Becca Imseis (college)
5. Kendra (post-college)

Rob: I want more, I wanna see the others on the big top-five. I want to see Penny and Charlie and Sarah, all of them. You know? Just see 'em and talk to 'em. You know, like a Bruce Springsteen song.
Bruce Springsteen: You call, you ask them how they are and see if they've forgiven you.
Rob: Yeah, and then I feel good. And they feel good.
Bruce Springsteen: They'd feel good, maybe. But you feel better.
Rob: I'd feel clean and calm.
Bruce Springsteen: That's what you're looking for, you know, get ready to start again. It'd be good for you.
Rob: Great, even.
Bruce Springsteen: Give that big final good luck and goodbye to your all time top-five and just move on down the road.
Rob: Good luck, Goodbye. Thanks, Boss.
