Your “Love” Was Filled With Empty Promises

 

And, I guess that’s why you could so easily decide that you were over me and over what we had. It never meant as much to you as it did to me.

Love for you was about convenience and about what makes you happy in the moment. You never wanted anything that was going to be challenging or need nurturing. You wanted easy and fun, and I was too complicated for that.

As much as it hurts to see you so easily moving forward with your life, I guess it made me realize some important things about myself.

If a boy could just drop me like that without a thought, then he is not capable of the kind of love that I know I need.

If a boy could claim that he loves a girl only to be over it the next week, he cannot even begin to fathom what real love is. 

And, even though I’m hurting, I know it’s because I tried and because I cared. I will never be like you because when I love someone, I truly mean it. And, I know that there is someone out there for me that will give me the love I mistakenly thought you were capable of giving me. 

I’ll continue to heal until, eventually, those painful memories of you will turn to indifference, and I’ll finally be able to move on without another thought just like you did.
