Sometimes you know its over before its over but when you really love someone and something happens that turns your world upside down, just walking away isn't easy. I know that I went through all those emotions Millie Jackson sings about in that album and some of them just weren't rational. I did go through a short period where I planned and plotted my revenge. I wanted to humiliate him and feed him the same emotional pain he'd fed me. I didn't go ahead with that revenge because by the time I'd set the plans in place, I'd moved into a much more rational curb and was able to recognise the stupidity of it.

My ex and me never got back together but we did move on and eventually we became good friends. If I had taken my revenge back then, that friendship wouldn't exist today.

My ex was a big fat twonk that it took me an age to get rid of.... I fed him some crazy things before he eventually left, he had a cast iron stomach that guy I can tell you!
