Breakups are tough
For the past 9 months together, we were so in love. We were head over heels for each other.
I cooked and he cleaned.
He showed me what it’s like to be taken care of.
He taught me how to play tennis.
He would fill up the water pitcher for me..so I wouldn’t ruin the filter
He would ask me if I wanted desserts after dinner and so I gave him a good old massage for his tense muscles.
He would wait for me with the lights on after my 16 hour ER shift
He showed me what it is to be in love
He made me fall in love with him
He was the first boy who I ever said I love you and I had two long term relationships in the past
I was the first girl he ever said I love you and his first girlfriend he brought home to his family. He made me believe I was in love and this relationship could last forever
After almost three decades of dishonoring fairy tales, he made me think that love did exist
There is a happy ending
But one day, he suddenly told me he doesn’t love me anymore
It was so sudden. I was so shocked, heartbroken, and empty.
But I loved him and I accepted his decision.
He made me believe that love exists and it can be temporarily
And he is now simply a faded memory in my life of whom I have to clear my cache..
