Alex Cooper says leaving the state for college helped her get away from a relationship

What was said

"I was in love and I put up with a lot and eventually I got out. But I will be honest, it literally took me physically leaving the state to get away from this person."

Alex Cooper says she “put up with a lot” in an early serious relationship and that getting out “literally took” her physically leaving the state. She says going to college in Boston created distance and reduced how much she could focus on the relationship, though she later carried some of the learned patterns into subsequent dating.
