The only opinion of value is but your own

First off I would like to say that this entry was very influenced from those who either A.) do not like Dave, B.) only agreed with me breaking up with Dave because he/she wants me to date their friend, or C.) all of the above. Yes I will verify that everything that was said was true... to an extent. It was true if you only looked at it from that point of view. Little did I know, I was also ignoring our relationship. Phones go both ways and as much as Dave didn't call me, I was in no hurry to call him.

The fault is part mine. Unconsciously, I assumed that no phone call from Dave meant that he was busy. My mind was set to default Dave as busy; from all the years when he was too busy, I guess I never reset my thought process. No way am I excusing Dave because he as well didn't pick up the phone and call or text.

We both equally need to work on our communication skills.

(Secretly, I need to work on deciphering other's opinions as healthy or as unhealthy. Those who hold a grudge against Dave or those who have friends 'whom consistently get screwed out of love and I'm the next best option' are... unhealthy opinions. Unfortunately I am surrounded with people who do not approve of Dave, which sucks but I never once cared what others thought.)
