Weeks turn into months and he hasn't texted you, he becomes a distant memory, a ghost of your past. Then, suddenly one day it all comes rushing back with a simple text "hey you still look good." During those few months, I wasn't waiting or moping around looking pathetic but just hoping his life was good. Nope, I'm still here living my best life but that little text totally sucked me back in.
It brings me back to the snapchatting, facetimes, and the texts from a few months ago. Its simple little things that lead to history repeating itself.
It's the promises that "you've changed", "things will be different", and you "really like me." Yup, I'm that girl that fell back into the trap and has someone feeding me all the bullshit they know I want to hear. I have to stop and ask myself how many other girls are as dumb as I am to believe it all. It's comical to learn I'm probably not the only one. One good day, after all the promises are made isn't enough to prove you have changed. Us girls, if you haven't noticed like consistency. We get you have lived beside us but we do like attention.
Is the one good morning text enough to prove you've changed? Or were those tickets for the Red Sox really for us? How about those summer concerts at Fenway? All little things promised but with no follow through. How about the date nights promised too?
So, when does the boy man up and stop letting history repeat itself. Better yet when do I let history stop repeating itself and realize its time to move on? How about when you offer to help paint his apartment or meet him when he should be coming to you? Girls are smart enough and know when he texts you "I'll let you know" when you ask him to hang out that nothing has changed.
Open your eyes and see the truth not what you hope or want out of him.
