I know…

I know it’s really sudden. Believe me I was comfortable with our old relationship too! It was great… Really it was! You saddling me with a ton of emotional baggage, and me shrugging responsibility for any of it and blaming everyone except myself…

Good times past… Good times.

We were truly a match made in co-dependent heaven. But in the end it wasn’t really going anywhere… You see that right? I mean it had to end.

Unfortunately I just don’t think we’re on the same page anymore. I mean I’m trying to grow as a person… As a human being. I’m trying to be happy past, but you… Well you are happy being miserable.

Look… It’s not you okay it’s me.

I need to find a way to be happy being me, you know with who I truly am now… Unfortunately it’s so easy falling into old habits when you’re around. The bottom line is holding on to you is just not good for either of us.

Don’t cry… Seriously please don’t cry… This isn’t easy for me either ya’ know and your crying is just making this harder for me…

Past… Please… Past! No we can’t just have one last wallow in self pity. Is that all our relationship was to you??? Self pity??? God you really have no respect for me as a person! I don’t know what I ever saw in you… Please! don’t touch me… STOP!

Look! If you must know I’m seeing someone else… NO! SHE IS NOT A SLUT!

You don’t know her… She is bright and beautiful and full of promise. She is the future… And well… I think I love her.

SHE IS NOT A WHORE!

I love her, she gives me hope… Don’t you dare talk about her like that!

Look… Past… A small part of you will always be with me. I learned so much from you. We shared so much together. But in the end I have to do what’s right for me…

I have to let you go…

I’m just sayin’…
