You made me fall in love with you. You showed me what it felt like to be happy. You told me it was okay to fall for you, that you would catch me. I never second guessed your words. You made it so easy for me to put my walls down.
When we met, everything felt so right. We clicked, and you became my best friend. We spent every day together. I knew I was falling in love with you. I was scared but you told me you would never hurt me. I imagined our future together, I saw my whole life with you. Finding you felt like winning the lottery like I found the best man on this Earth and he was all mine. I never knew I could be so wrong.
You told me you stopped talking to your ex-girlfriend. I never felt worried because I never had a reason to be. You went away to college, where she was going to be as well. I talked to you every day -- never a sign that anything was going wrong. The moment I found out that you were not who I thought you were is a moment I will never forget. My stomach dropped and I couldn't find my words. I loved you so hard. I had been with a man who I did not know. I gave you all my trust. I let my walls come down. You may say it meant nothing, but to me, it meant everything. You made me a fool, and for months, I was hurt.
Today, I am better. I know I deserve someone who is faithful and can return the love I give. To the man who made it hard to trust, I hope it hurts looking at what you gave up.
