was doing some daily journal writing in my diary and was reflecting about my relationship with him. How much I still miss him. Even more now that he’s away… There’s nothing wrong to miss someone isn’t it? At least I know that this is temporary and will go away soon.
There are simply so many questions I’d like to ask. Yet no one can answer it except him. I may think I know him well enough, but it may not. I may think that I can understand him, but it may not be true. But at least I’m learning to let go. Who wouldn’t? It was my first ever relationship with a much older guy whom I clicked really well with. Screw it if He had a bet. Screw it if he was much older. Screw it if he was playing around. (well, not really.) Screw it if I stupidly got myself into this mess knowing the heartache I’d face.
I feel apologetic that never once did I think for him. After a sharing session with a friend, I found out that people at your work were talking about our relationship.
In a relationship,
If ever one party was to feel shame of the other, be it hiding the relationship, or afraid to introduce him/her to their friends, it means that you’re not meant to be. I’m sorry if your pride might have been trampled back colleagues showing disgust about you dating someone so much younger than you. I can understand that a men’s pride is important.
If ever one party was to be faced with stresses at work and to listen to colleagues gossiping about others, it means that you’re not meant to be. I’m sorry if our relationship caused you stress at work. Never once had I wanted that to happen. If I had known, I wouldn’t have agreed to start.
If ever one party was to go out on a date with you, and starts putting in less effort to please you, it means that he’s getting sick of you.
I’m sorry if I bore you out or didn’t dress sexily enough or if we had some miscommunication along the way.
If ever one party was to gradually stop contacting you, you know, He ain’t yours no matter what sort of promises he made to you…
And if you really love your guy and know that nothing is getting better no matter how you try, it is time to let go. If breaking up will make him happier, do it. Yes, you’d be hurt for sure. But Loving someone isn’t about keeping him.
What is yours will be yours. It will be yours if it’s meant to be…
I would be lying through my teeth if I said I don’t miss him, I don’t feel sad, I don’t miss being with him. I still feel sad at times, or even cry. I’d often ask, “Why is he dating someone whom he used to call a mad women?” Yet, they are Men. Human’s lie. But funny how I can never get mad with him at that. How much I wished I was that lucky girl to be going out with him. To be able to spend time with him, his sarcastic jokes that often scares me but cracks me up with endless laughter. I feel a pinch of jealousy that all this ain’t mine but someone else’s. The endless texts, the skype calls, the relaxing dates, the romantic dates, the snuggle times, the sweet lil gifts. It’s all someone’s now. You lucky girl. Do cherish him ok? ❤
I’m really grateful to have been instilled with the skill of social respect, understanding and wide perspective. I knew how to let go when it was time… At least I am grateful that even if he was playing around or doing it for my sake, that he bothered to end the relationship before starting another. All I can do is pray and wish him happiness with his future girlfriend and that he learns to try and commit and trusts that there something called everlasting love. Even at your age. I’m sorry if I couldn’t make you feel secure and provide you with the assurance that I’d love you forever. Even if you were doing it for me and my future. Even when you knew that I was willing to go through thick and thin. \
I sincerely hope that in your next relationship, you learn to trust your partner more. Perhaps she may be better for you. Though you were happy with me, you may be happier with her. I hope that she’d be able to do a better job than me, making you feel settled and comfortable. For sure, I know that she loves you more based on what you’ve often told me. Perhaps its that security that you need. Something that I cannot provide, because we had so much in common yet different.
Even if there was a teeny tiny percentage that you broke up with me because you really loved me and want the best for me, I am grateful for that. I will cherish that opportunity and find someone better, and promise to work hard in my career. Not for you, but for myself. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to know you and providing me with such a rich and wonderful experience. Yea, love can rock and suck big time. But it’s part of our journey through Life. Life goes on whether you’re dead or alive.
I’m surprised how calm I can be even with the most panicking situations. There were two choices standing in front of me when we broke up. 1. You can either pick yourself up and take it as a learning journey and carry on with your life, or 2. You kill yourself and end your miserable life. Even when I misplaced and lost my phone the other day. How awfully calm I was while my dad waas the one getting all flared up and asking me a million questions. I was mad and sad at how ugly the world can be. Dishonest people. Yet looking it at another side, I took it as a sign from God that I was meant to lose it. To loose all those cherished memories of our text conversations. Perhaps then I’d really be free from him.
Who knows?
In a way, this painful breakup and helped me matured in certain ways and taught me life experiences and lessons to always remember. Though I’m open to meeting new people, I’m kinda hesitant to start on another relationship so soon. I don’t wna meet another heartbreaker. I’m just a simple minded woman who wants someone to love me as much as I love him, to be willing to go through thick and thin together in sickness and in good health, for poorer or for richer. I need someone committed, patient, hardworking and have perseverance in what ever he does. Someone who can have two minds. Someone who trusts you 100%. Where to find someone like that? The only candidate is God. Heh. Waking up from the painful breakup has made me want to commit to knowing God and Jesus better and create a closer relationship with him. Only then will I find someone who would love me as much as I love God and him.
May you cherish her as much and keep the relationship going. May you not break her heart. I’m pretty sure she’s a nice person and there’s something that attracts you towards her. I pray and hope that you are with her because you truly like her and want to be with her and not because you are doing it to make me give up on you or maybe even to fill that empty space. Who knows. May you not hurt her as you did with me. May she treasure you much more than I did. The list goes on and on… It’s sincere wishes. I feel at ease knowing that you’ve got someone with you…
Goodbye my first Love ❤
I wish you Happiness and Forever Good Health.
Take care “My old man” (always my old man :P)❤
Yours truely, and still loving you,
Trixie Liao ❤
How long I’ve yearned to pen down my thoughts. Screw it if you don’t like it. It’s so enjoyable to reflect and write about how I feel, think and see. Perhaps this may lead me into my future career. 🙂
