If your girlfriend broke up with you, you might say “I just want her to be happy”, but you don’t really want her to be happy – at least not right away. You want her to struggle and realize how good she had it with you. You want to run into her a few months later with your new girlfriend and see the regret in her eyes. Then and only then can you honestly wish her the best. It’s called winning the break-up. It happens in love, it happens in business, and it happens in sports.
