This story was just like a broken pencil; pointless.

Ok, let us be a little more fair. She is your first character, lead character that is, that got her act to gether, and with minimum proding from friends. This one is a first. For that I congratulate you.

Your writing is dry for her psychological state. We cannot see that she is depressed. We only listen to her say that she is so. On the two chapters that were before this one, when she felt something, we could tell by her way of reaction, by how she talked and acted with others. Here the only thing we see is her, chewing some pizza in an, admitedly, "nothing to see here" moment. Which, for me, was the highlight of this chapter. Even her "let us forget each other" speech, was so low key that it removed much of the punch I feel you wanted for it. I cannot feel anything for her. She IS stating the obvious, she IS not getting angry because he doesn't matter anymore, but when all is said and done, I feel none of the relief one would feel when closing a chapter in his/hers life. The "now I can do something else with my life" feeling.

All in all, I think you need to rewrite the whole thing. The last chapter seems rushed and too emotionally dry.

Please don't kill me?

ok, here goes.

Firstly, your the gal has issues. Self esteem is an all time low. Secondly, the time transitions are a little bit weird. With one phrase, and nothing else to show it, a whole lot time passes by. Nothing to indicate that time DID pass. The fact that her sister take folic acid, could have hapened the next day. Thirdly, either Mike loves her, or he is the best friend she ever had, and never figured it out. No matter what, I wouldn't like to be in Joel's shoes.

So, you should check your pacing in this one.
