To the boy who told me to change,
You told me to change my attitude. You told me to change my ways. You told me to change my outlook on life, but I didn't. You kept telling me to change and I did, but not the way you wanted me to. You told me to change. You weren't in love with me, you were in love with the idea of a changed me.
You told me I had a bad attitude, yet I didn't go off on people because they would not give me a discount. You said I had a negative attitude; however, you were the one who had a negative outlook on life. You never saw the problem within yourself.
You wanted me to change, but you never wanted to change things about you. You acted like you are perfect and as if I were the problem. Funny how I was such the problem since my new boyfriend and I get along perfect and he doesn't see anything that needs to change.
You always told me things I needed to change. I needed to go to college for careers you thought would work best for me, not what I wanted. You wanted me to do everything your way. My opinion never mattered, only yours.
I finally realized I needed to change, so I did. I changed my relationship status to single. I left you and that was my change. I changed, but not how you wanted. Now I'm following the career path that I want. I'm looking into my best interest and not yours and I'm so much happier.
So to the boy who told me to change, I did, but not how you saw fit. Thanks for encouraging me to change, because it's the best decision I ever made.
