I had to say goodbye to the person that I love today, not knowing if I will ever see them or hear from them ever again. I thought I had more time. They kept saying to give it time, as we had all year. They said I didn’t have to start reducing seeing them yet.
I spent the weekend writing a letter, explaining how, with time, if we worked together on things, I could try to not end it, because if the long distance and we could work things out. I was so very excited to see him today, after he read my letter. My heart was so happy, all day, looking forward to seeing him.
Then he told me he was moving as of immediate effect. Today was the last day we could spend together. I said I would miss him, because I don’t know when we will see each other again, and he asked if that meant I was ending things. No. It’s always hard parting ways. I always miss him.
Then, the text message that he sent me when I got home made me feel like he had made my decision for me and that was it.
Why does love hurt so much?
