I know you won’t see this but I have to talk about it so I can get it off my chest. Firstly, I miss you so much. Not a day goes by where there’s not something that reminds me of you. Whether it’s a reference to a game or movie we saw, something that happened at work, seeing a person that looks like you, smelling your cologne, a random memory replaying in my head, etc. You’re always on my mind. I’m always wondering if you’re okay, if everything’s going well recently, or if you miss me too, or if I even cross your mind. Secondly, when you posted anonymously about me last month, that post really hurt me. You tried so say we weren’t on the same page in our relationship and that you felt alone. How were we not on the same page? We both wanted to be together forever. And you said you felt alone because I wouldn’t go to you with my problems. But that was because I was always trying to help you with your problems and protect you from mine. It hurt me how you spun it to make it seem like I never loved you, when that’s all I ever did. When you would break down crying I was there to hold you. How can you say you don’t think you were what I wanted? When you would get insecure and jealous about stuff I would reassure you. Why would I go through all that stress if I didn’t want you? Also in other posts you were acting like you missed me so much, but I was always the one to reach out to you after the breakup. I don’t think that’s fair. I pulled away because my life was crashing down, and instead of supporting me like I always did for you (even in times when you pushed me away), you took the easy way out and held the door open for me to leave. I’m still hurt about that. And even though I’m hurt, I still love the hell out of you and want the best for you. Even though you lied and said you would always be there for me and support me, I still wish the best for you. Sometimes I wish I didn’t. I wish I could just forget you and move on. But I’m always just worrying about you and how you’re dealing with the breakup. Hoping your holding up and finding happiness. I’ve been hurt so many times in the past, and I really thought you were different. You were supposed to be the sweet guy. The harmless guy. The guy I put down my walls for. But instead you saw me hurting and left me there to suffer alone. I hope in the future when you’re dating someone else you don’t see walls as a barrier and instead see them as something to try to climb over. Even if someone doesn’t tell you what they’re going through, sometimes just being present is all they need. That’s all I needed and you weren’t there. What confuses me is that you withhold things too. It takes a while for you to even reveal what’s wrong, so it’s crazy to me that you don’t know how to deal with people that do the same thing to you. I hope that’s something that you work on in the future. As for me I will learn to try to be more vulnerable with my future partner. Let them in and be less scared of getting hurt. Although I’ve never found anyone who hasn’t hurt me, and I don’t think I ever will, I hope to find someone who at least doesn’t hurt me with mal intent. Someone who is flawed like I am, but who is self aware enough to want to work on it. I wish you the best, and all the happiness in the world.

Now this kinda heartbreaking to hear dude :(,, I don't think this guy was the best for you honestly,,, simply for not seeing the wrong in his actions n supporting you when times get tough. you can really tell wha someones true colours are when you go through your happiest high moments n your abysmal lows. But I a;so think he was hurt that you were hiding a secret from him. That you were struggling quite a bit a your own problems,,,I understand vulnerability is really difficult n comes w lots of trust n feeling safe. Imagine how you'd feel if let's say someone was doing really bad mentally n harmed themself as a coping mechanism n hid those facts from you even in vulnerable convos cuz they wanted so help another in a relationship. If you were in their shoes I bet you be freaking out cuz if they simply told you,, you would've helped. I find it's never really anger, js being scared, scared if losing someone, worrying for their safety. Caring enough to have an emotional reaction to it. Relationships are ab sticking to each other through thick n thin. Communicating, understanding , respecting n caring for each other. Ya got the caring n understanding part down mostly.. I hope he improves on his commitment n I hope seeking support becomes that tiny bit easier after learning a lesson . What you feel is COMPLETELY valid. :) Love him , mourn him, do whatever you please,, js make sure you prioritize yourself now,,, okay? What you feel is us as important as him, care ab yourself first sweetie <3

Thank you luv. I completely understand that he could’ve felt hurt that I didn’t go to him about the struggles. He would do the same to me, pushing me away, keeping issues to himself until finally he would break down. And I always gave him the reassurance that I was there for him and when he wanted to open up about it then he could. And I remember feeling hurt that he would hide it from me, but regardless I tried to be understanding to it. What hurt was that when I would do the same thing (I can admit I’m bad at being vulnerable and telling people my emotions), he didn’t show me the same care back. Even still with him doing that I don’t see him as the villain. I know we’re all flawed, we’re humans after all. It’s just that it hurt knowing that I wasn’t worth fighting for or worth being supportive of. But now I’m learning to be okay on my own, I’ve always been able to support myself, and that’s exactly what I’ll do until I find the person who provides safety in opening up. Im also trying to teach myself that it had nothing to do with being “worth” being supportive of. I am worth care and support, no matter what, just like everyone else. And thank you for telling me to prioritize myself now, that’s exactly what I’ll do <3 it is the new year after all :)
