He doesn’t mean that. But that doesn’t really help either of them.
Claire and Colm had been together since the end of “The Case of the Simple Soul”, which was almost four years ago, or approximately 2.5 eternities in grammar-school years.
Keep telling yourself that you were getting tired of Claire, Colm. Maybe eventually you can come to believe it. (No, you won’t.) You should have stopped the conversation at “Long distance… it ain’t for me,” and left it at that.)
Colm’s another character I wish we could have seen more of.
To people calling him a jerk – if you can get your ex mad enough at you then she won’t be sad about you. He’s a confident risk-taker. If he really meant it it’d show.
