You were my dream. You were my absolute idea of perfection. We had the most perfect love — sweet, innocent, and honest… at least I thought it was.
When I met you, I fell so deeply and wholly for you.
I fell and I wasn’t able to catch myself. I thought you were right there with me. I thought you were falling as deeply as I was.
But now I can see a difference in your eyes. I can feel a coldness in your touch that was never there before.
I don’t know where you’ve gone, but I know that something within you has changed.
I know that you are no longer the man that I fell in love with and more importantly, I know that you no longer look at me and see the woman you fell for.
You look at me differently. Every conversation we have feels forced. Every word out of your mouth seems like a lie. Every hug, every kiss, every ‘I Love You’ seems tainted with the strain of indifference.
I know you are a great man, and I know that you would never, ever want to hurt me. But I know what’s happening.
I can feel that you’re falling out of love with me.
We can’t keep going on with this charade. If I’m not the one for you, just tell me. It won’t be easy because we do really love each other. But, it will be better in the long run if you rip the band-aid off.
I don’t want to wind up in a relationship that’s one-sided, and neither do you. We both deserve more.
I don’t have the strength to break up with you because to me, you are perfect. But, I beg of you, if I’m not the one for you, please tell me and let me move on.
Just make sure to let me down gently.
