Wave goodbye, my dear.
For all the shit I was told about my most recent ex today.
Your loyalties should lie with me.
Loyalties are the most important thing in the world to me.
Today.
Today I was told that he is a liar, a manipulator, a thief.
I was aware of none of this except the liar bit.
And I forgave it.
My standards will never slip that far ever again.
I promise that to myself, swear it to my heart.
I will never, ever, ever let myself be buried like that.
You will not suffocate me with your bullshit.
Not now, not ever.
Do I mean so FUCKING LITTLE to you, that you would let me date someone like that?
That you would let them cheat on and lie to me?
And the only thing you tell me, your only words of caution?
“Don’t move too fast with Eddie.”
I forgave you when you chose to hide the truth from me.
And it bothered me immensely.
‘What else could you be fucking me over with?’
For today.
For today I found out everything I needed to know.
That you refer to me as “a good kid”?
For some reason, that bothers me.
I do not need you in my life anymore.
Suffocating me.
Making me feel like shit.
Coaxing me.
Blame everything on starburst eyes and my people-pleasing ways.
It was his insistence that got us into this mess.
This is not a game I will play.
I follow rules, I play fair.
You were my drug; I depended upon you.
The only person who has smashed my heart more, and fucked my mind; fucked my skull, is her. She wasn’t worth it either. And she and I, we had a thousand more amazing memories than you and I ever will. The physical suffering was minimal; the emotional and mental torture was exhausting; but she was fun, and I loved her.
No person who dares fuck with my head, let alone my heart, is worth my time.
Remember.
I am overreacting. But I don’t care.
