Subject: You’re a coward!
From: hearmeout_jodi@hotmail.com
Bullshit! You think by sending me a letter it would help make me feel better? I’m deaf Bette, but I’m not dumb. So please, stop saving yourself. You’ve already caused me so much pain, and there’s no way you could do the right thing. Even your writing, I’d say, really sucks for a Yale graduate. No words can help mend what I’m feeling right now.
I’m broken. And if you think pity and kindness can change a thing, then you’re utterly mistaken. You think you can lay me down so easily!? Just because you wished me well, it doesn’t mean you’re not dumping me. You’re still kicking me right where it hurts most. I’m not fucking naïve…
I wonder what happened to your grandiose display of love and affection. 21 Reasons Why— doesn’t it ring a bell? I don’t understand why you have to fly all the way to New York just to win me back. I was willing to give you up back then. But, you’ve always been so unfair. You always get what you want. You try to control everything. And when you lose control, and you expect everything you’ve built so hard for to come down with it.
You were the one who pushed me into monogamy, remember? I almost gave up everything—my friends, my home, even my job. Oh Bette, you have got great sense of timing! So, why now? All of a sudden you have to realize that you’re still in love with that woman? How convenient, huh!? Suddenly, it’s a happy ending for Bette and T.
But, you’re damn right. The last few months have been excruciating. You won’t even let me touch you. Do you know how that feels? For now, I sure can’t forgive you. What I know is that I could never forget what you did to me.
Even if I love you, I won’t let myself be reduced to being a friend ‘cause I’m not Alice. I’m not cool with things, and I don’t find it funny!
But then again, I’m not Tina. So, I guess I have no choice. It’s all or nothing, and I end up with no one. You leave me nothing, not even your respect.

Bette kept staring at the screen, not believing what she just read. It’s supposed to be an email from Jodi.
“Jodi has always been right,” she then heard herself say before shedding a tear.

I think she was being harsh on Bette, I know that it’s hard to be in her position and say these things but she was the one who gave up everything because SHE wanted to be with Bette it isn’t Bette’s fault, she is responsible for her own actions. Breakups are really difficult especially on the one who get dumped.Thank you for posting dear
Sorry, but Jodi had it coming and deserved to get dumped. She is nothing like Tina and never will be. Bette deserved better than Jodi and Thanks God Better got out so her and Tina can be together. Screw Jodi and let her fall off a cliff.
i love tibette, too. they belong together. i just figured, jodi won’t let it be so easy for them considering what happened in the last episode. =)
every lesbian I’ve ever known has always sorted out and bonked their next gf be4 dumping the present girl; so much so that I figure its just part of Lesbian culture to do so. I mean look at Alice and Dana; Shane, Carmen & Jenny; Marina, Jenny & whatshername. Shall I go on????
i meant alice, dana, lara. tina’s only crime from the viewppont of lesbian culture was choosing a Henry not a Helena. probably thats the reason jodi didn’t bother with the pretence of monogamy b4 bette. she opened her heart for bette and got done!!! she has a right to be very hurt and bette to feel very guilty. and no, being friends with your ex sux; its only to make the cheater feel better except in a case like alice where her and bette had already ended when tina came along.
I think this about the right reaction from Jodi. She accuses Bette of always trying to be in control but she does the same thing. Its always hard to accept a breakup and most times there’s alot of bitterness that goes along with it. Some people find it very hard to accept the consequences of their actions.I’m a big B&T fan but I can also put myself in Jodi’s shoes for a moment and see how she feels betrayed. I think she did try her best with Bette…she tried monogamy, tried to fit in with Bette’s friends and even tried to bring Bette into her circle of friends, but in the end, their true personalities won out. Neither of them really fit into the other one’s world. This was a relationship that was doomed to failure from the beginning.
Wow that was hard. I’m not sure if Jodi is right to blame it all on Bette, she has done her own part of hurting Bette as well and she doesn’t have to say bette always wants to be in control cause Jodi is exactly the same, she wanted to control bette and make her change the way she was. She turned Bette into a cry baby. jodi doesn’t have to play the victim here cause she isn’t all that innoscent, the only thing I agree on withhter is the way she has to find out about Bette & Tina. Bette should have had the guts to end things in a proper way and not been a coward AND B&T shouldn’t have cheated on Jodi.
I think Jodi’s being harsh but she has that right as the dumpee. Sometimes that is how breakups go and you just can’t mend the broken pieces and become friends.
