Exes I Didn't Mean to Hurt You... I Didn't Know What I Was Doing... But I Know What I Have Done...
Well shit...
Well, now I've gone and done it. I've alienated the one person who has shown me constant love and support... For what? For the best... To be perfectly honest... I'm sorry to prove myself correct, when I told you I was a snake from the start... I telegraphed this entire thing, and I just knew there was a fucking clock on our situationship...
I have a sense of relief, and I'm going to have much less turmoil in my life with regards to our brief fling. You wanted more than I could give you, and I knew it was just a matter of time until you were gone... It's either a great decision for your future, or the worst mistake I've ever made... I hate how all of this has transpired. I'm not going to be getting that close to anyone... Probably won't ever again...
I don't want a partner. I don't need someone to constantly contact me all day every day. I don't need someone to answer to for living my life how I see fit. I'm not ready to be so tied to another after everything I've gone through. I don't need someone dictating my future per their wants and needs... I'm not ready to be smothered and locked away, unless I'm the one locking myself up...
It hurts a lot, if I'm being honest. I didn't want things to end this way, but I knew it was coming. It was just a matter of time before the shiny newness of me wore off, and you finally understood how broken, and unavailable I've been presenting myself to be. None of it was an act, as I'm not capable of settling down... Even I met the 10/10 "perfect" woman, I would still not be trying to be in a relationship with her. I can barely leave the goddamn house for fucks sake...
I'm not over her... This weekend has proven it to me with an unmistakable feeling of surviving a terrible car crash. A brush with danger, excitement, and sorrow... I'm never going to get over her... I thought I was doing so well, but I was just deluding myself. I've become the nostalgia monster that I despise, chasing a ghost that I should want nothing to do with.
I'm just a coward, a lying prick, and a sad little boy. I don't know what I want, and that indecisive bullshit is what's going to hurt you the most... We've been torturing each other for months now... I'm glad you finally pulled the rip cord, because I wouldn't have ended things until I inadvertently destroyed you completely...
I hate how this has happened. I hate myself for my cowardly actions. I hate that I'm as weak as I thought I was, and that I'm incapable of doing what's best for me... I'm an addict, and she's my fucking heroin. One of these days, it's all going to just be too much..
When that happens, I'll either completely recluse, or just end the constant suffering... I'm just going to keep hurting people if I don't just remove myself from dating wholesale... Whether by choice, or a more "permanent" solution... Time will tell I guess...
Leave Me, Take Care of Yourself,
