Was different.
He showed me a different way to love.
He accepted my flaws and all, although he had a hard time accepting his own.
But I loved him, and still do to this day.
We were good friends, more than anything.
And that’s why we lasted so long.
He brought out the best in me, but I craved more.
I was ready to change my environment, I needed to spread my wings.
Solo
Independently…
Wake up call after wake up call.
I became bored.
Our relationship became a groundhog day, and I got tired of waiting, and playing this girlfriend role.
Got tired of waiting for change, but he was comfortable.
“How is it his responsibility?” I asked myself, he is not in charge of my happiness.
I am!
I felt a shift in the relationship, because there was a shift in me that needed my attention.
Growing will do that to you.
And you began not being attracted to things you once were.
The shift.
It can happen at anytime, but you shouldn’t ignore it.
The other man allowed me to spread my wings, and I am forever grateful for him.
For his love, his company, his desire for me to grow.
It goes to show when you love something/someone don’t be afraid to let it go.
For it is the attachment itself that can cause more harm than not letting go.
Allow yourself to soar, even if it doesn’t make sense.
