To The man I Continue To Love

In This Article:

I know we aren't good with words, and sometimes we find ourselves yelling rather than speaking and that's ok because I know we are both short tempered. I figured I could type up into words how I truly feel; how you have made me feel for the past month. Please read this letter and don't get mad at it- do not resent it. Just let these words sink in. It's the only way I know how to make myself feel better. I hope they mean something to you and I hope that you can understand how I feel a little bit better now.

I need to explain to you what it feels like to be told you are perfect in every way possible and will always be taken care of. Let me convey the emotions that rip through a young female like myself when she is convinced she is someone's forever. Let me express the hope and loyalty that is instilled inside of a girl who built up wall after wall only to feel as though they were peacefully torn down by a man who pulled her deeply into his love. A wall that was continuously built over time due to heartbreak after heartbreak- a wall this girl's father told her to "just let it down, just trust him a little. " for the first time ever in her life. I cannot formulate those emotions into words the same way I cannot describe the way it felt to have you rip that to pieces.

I want you to know that I love you. I love you through every emotional part of the roller coaster we've been through together. I loved you on the days that you were pleasant and genuine and also the days you were unrecognizable to me. I love you through every changing circumstance and the rapid movement of time. I even loved you when you decided that you didn't love me anymore and broke my trust; when you shattered my heart into a million pieces. A part of me still loves you while I sit here at work, crying silently to myself, hiding the tears that continue to slowly fall down my face so no one asks, "What's wrong? Are you ok?", but what I want you to know most is that I still love myself, and I still know what love really is. I know that it is possible for you to love me, but now I've lost all belief in that statement, "I love you.. "

You have completely broken my heart, but you have not broken my love for you. I know you have it too, deep inside of you, and my love allows me to genuinely hope that you will understand it one day. There are no simple letters written about simple heartbreak, because heartbreak aren't just that- simple. There is only one simple concept, and that is that love is the most powerful entity in the universe. So, I will probably allow a few more tears to fall down tonight while you sleep peacefully beside me. I will most likely shed more when I listen to every song we sing or see something I know would make you smile, but I will be OK. I'll be OK because the love inside of me is strong and true. I'll be OK because no matter how many people trample on my heart, they will never take my love. No one can, not even you.

Understand that if you break my trust again, if you hurt me the way you have, just one more time, I will have absolutely nothing to do with you anymore and it will ruin me, but this will be for my own good; my own emotional and mental well-being. Please don't let me regret giving you this chance. And when you're done reading this, I need you to convey your exact emotions to me; what you're feeling at this exact moment. Now is the time to get everything off of your chest. Just remember, I love you very much. I yearn to earn your trust back one day: until that day comes, my heart remains shattered in pieces, yet endlessly loving you.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
