Agreed that you did the right thing MagiK.
I believe Ceci2ia would be grateful that you tried to go about it with the most honesty and least amount of dissapointment.
The fact that you cared about someone you barely know, enough to consider what the best way for
them would be and not be selfish about it, means she would ultimately be at peace about the whole matter IMHO.
All the best with C!
