The Only Way I Know How

The last blog I wrote entitled, “The Worst Feeling” had some unforeseen repercussions, so this may not be the best way to do all of this, but its the only way I know how. The man, I was writing about in that blog has now officially unfriended and blocked me on Facebook and told me that he can’t forgive what I said about him. Good news though, I didn’t think I was going to survive if he decided to walk out of my life, but so far, I’m ok, not thriving or anything, but I’m alive. But because of this happening, I want to clarify a few things. I doubt he will ever read this, although, I doubted he would read the last one and obviously he did. Anyway some of the things he said really got to me because I think he pretty much misunderstood the entire blog and the entire reason I wrote it, so now that I’m no longer a crying mess, I want to try and explain/clarify everything since he won’t even text me anymore, this is the best I’ve got. I want to clarify, I'm not apologizing for what I said, but I am apologizing for hurting someone I really care about. 
First off, I said the girl he likes “isn’t even pretty.” First off, he could be madly in love with my best friend in the entire world or like the prettiest girl in the world and I still wouldn’t think she is pretty because I like to be a petty girl sometimes and I’m jealous. Yep, I’ll admit it, I’m jealous because she has the love of a man that I love, why wouldn’t I be jealous. So I don’t know her personally just a hunch on who she is. It was never anything personal, but I’m never going to like this girl because she has the one man that I have ever been in love with. Of course I’m not going to like her.  However, he told me that I “crossed a line” by talking about her. I get he is mad about what I said, but I probably could have come up with a lot worse to say had I wanted to be an ever bigger bitch. I understand him being mad at me, but I don’t really think I crossed a line by what I said.
Next, he thought I was trying to make him the bad guy. That was never my intention; it is just a shitty situation. We fell in love at the wrong time and his feelings changed sooner then mine did. It happens, that doesn’t make him a bad guy that is just life. His feelings for me changed and mine haven’t yet. My feelings weren’t ready to change. Even after him breaking the one promise I held him to, I still don’t think my feelings are ready to completely change, although they have changed a bit. It’s no one’s fault though, it is just how the situation worked out. I did my best to put my feelings aside because I knew his feelings had changed, but I’m not a robot, I can’t just turn something like that on and off so a lot of the time, I struggled with letting go of how I feel about him. Despite that I still wanted to be his friend and I know he knew that my feelings hadn’t changed, but I never wanted him to feel bad for it, so instead of telling him, I wrote about it and posted some of this blog (like the last 2) and then I kept a lot hidden away just for me. He told me, that he always tried to make this all easier on me, which I knew he did. However, there was nothing he could have done to make it easier on me. I mean at the end of the day I probably shouldn’t have been so okay with us talking about sex as much as we did but that was kind of my way of hanging on. I wasn’t ready to let go of my feelings regardless of how I knew he felt about me. That still doesn’t make him the bad guy, I did absolutely everything I could to make sure he wasn’t the bad guy. I said that I wanted to hate him, the reason behind that was that if I could hate him, and then I would actually have been able to be completely get over my love for him. But I couldn’t hate him because I couldn’t find a way to make him the bad guy in the situation, I couldn’t so I couldn’t hate him. I wanted to cause I thought it would make easier, but even now, I still don’t hate him. And I don't think I will ever be able to hate him, or stay mad at him. I am however extremely hurt and upset with him, but that doesn't make him a bad guy.
I know that’s not all he said to me, but I’m trying not to remember all of it frankly because it hurts a lot. So I deleted the text messages, least most of them, the ones that are left are a lot harder to delete then the ones that are already gone. As much as I don’t want to, I know that I have to do it this time, I have to move on. It’s been really hard but I’m working on it. I have been talking to my friends and family a lot, it’s been helping but it doesn’t make it any easier. I guess, if the friendship had to end, and maybe it does I don’t know, I wish that we could talk about it, face-to-face, like the adults we are and at least end on good terms and maybe be friends on Facebook at the least. That is what I hate the most that he decided to end 6 years of friendship so easily. That’s what hurts the most too, I just wish I could explain this all to him, but he won’t have anything to do with me now. Even now, my feelings haven’t entirely changed letting him go is hard, I think a part of me is always going to love him, because he was my first love. But I guess if he doesn’t even want to be my friend anymore, that’s what has to happen. As much as it hurts me, I have to let him go. I just wish he would talk to me and let me fully explain everything because even if he is reading this I don't think it does what I want to say any sort of justice. I guess it’s all about the babysteps of moving on now.

Note: To this guy, if he ever decides to read this and you decide to never speak to me again here is what I've got. I hope you know that I am forever changed by who you are and what you mean to me. I am really happy that you were in my life even if it was for a short time and I am hoping that you will choose to speak to me again, if nothing else so I can explain and we can have closure for each other. Above all, I hope you're happy. I hope you get everything you've ever wanted and I really hope you know how amazing you are to me and even if you never agree, you truly are amazing. I never meant to hurt you, that was never my intention at all, I would never dream of doing that and I'm sorry that I did. I know this little thing was repetitive, but it's all of got left I hope you'll talk to me and I'll be frank, I already miss your friendship.

The Worst Feeling

DISCLAIMER: I am currently a crying mess alone in my room so this is just a bunch of jumbled thoughts about the first boy I ever fell in love with. Boy was I stupid.

I’ve always been the strong girl, always. It’s the only thing I knew how to be, and it was pretty easy just to shove away all the emotions and tell the world to fuck off. But now, now I don’t know what to do. Because I was always the strong girl no one ever bothered to love me, or care about me or anything like that. And it was ok, because I didn’t want all the feelings and bullshit. But somebody did, he cared and he told me he loved me and I fell for head over heels in love with him. I guess I shouldn’t have listened to myself. I should have known better, I should have known he wouldn’t stay in my life as my love. Because he doesn’t want that anymore. I don’t know, we talked tonight and it just felt so final like I was never going to hear from him again or something and I don’t know what to do. I hate him for breaking my heart, but I’d be lying if I said him walking out of my life was something I could handle, cause I couldn’t. Because I have been so strong for so long I feel so pathetic for all these feelings. For sitting alone in my room, crying my eyes for the 4th night in a row because it just hurts. I guess I knew deep down that after June we weren’t going to happen, but there was always a glimmer of hope. Now I think that is gone and I can’t, I can’t, I just can’t really let myself believe that that hope is gone. If this is what love is, the fuck it, I don’t want it. I don’t ever want to feel like this ever again because it is the worst feeling in the world. If I have to go through this multiple times before I find ‘the right guy’ then I should start preparing to be alone because I don’t want this ever again. I just don’t understand. The girl he wants isn’t even pretty and it almost would be easier if she was because then at least I could understand why he choose her even though he knows a relationship won’t happen. But she isn’t so I can’t fathom in my brain what I did wrong to make him not want me anymore. When you give someone everything you’ve got and it isn’t enough it leaves you feeling worthless. This entire year has been my best not being good enough and I just don’t understand. I read this a while ago, I guess I get it now about how heartbreak doesn’t care you are, and it doesn’t make sense. It just takes one person to change their mind for your world to come crashing down and that’s what happened. He changed his mind and doesn’t want me anymore and I don’t know what to do about it. I want to hate him for this, but I can’t because even know as I lay in bed bawling my eyes out I still want to text him and tell him to come hold me and let him run his fingers down my spine as we just wrap ourselves around each other until all the pain goes away. Instead I’m going to torture myself with the one thing that has never failed to make me smile. Looking at all the texts of all the plans we made together. I guess I will forever be wondering if we really could have been as amazing as we both of us agreed we would be. It looks like we will never get the chance to actually know.
