We were starting over. A new us. We were supposed to put the past behind us. We both screwed up so badly that the only way for us to move on was to accept our mistakes and start over as a new couple.
A couple more months down the road and we were going to move in with each other and start our lives together. Everything was perfect.
But it all changed.
One night was all it took for you to throw away your best friend, girlfriend, future fiancee, wife, and mother of your children. All because you were drunk, saw a girl you previously had sex with, and you couldn't hold back.
This isn't the first time you have cheated.
I don't regret giving you a couple of chances to make things right because we both messed up in our own ways. People might judge me for giving a cheater another chance but you were my best friend.
I saw a future with you. You were going to be the best husband and father in the world. I'm sure you still might be, but not with me.
I wanted to give you another chance, no matter how desperate and crazy that sounds. But something inside me knew it was time to let go.
To let go of all of the amazing memories, to let go of the love of my life, to let go of my best friend. I don't truly want to but I also know I don't deserve the pain you've put me through.
You were my everything but it's time for me to find peace within myself and a future with someone who will always put me first.
