Any background information: David is Julie's ex-boyfriend, and Julie is a musician. Other than that, it's a long, convoluted story.

David had never stopped loving her, just like he said he would keep on loving. He sent flowers after many of her performances, with a polite little card. Not asking her to get back together or to contact him, but simply to say well done. Oh yes, he still loved her; the love seeped out of those little cards. He just loved her all wrong. He wanted to keep her wrapped up in a comfy little life that would have suffocated her. Julie could live without love, but she could not live with a man that did not respect her.
