To date, I have never ever been on my own, without a boyfriend in a very long time. I have always had someone in my life and perhaps it will affect me later in future. Not being able to be alone could be detrimental to oneself. To always rely on someone emotionally could make living in the future hard to cope with.
That is why finding it hard to move on from my former relationship is extremely hard. There are days when everything is fine up till I see a picture or remember just about anything to remind me of him or the things we used to do, which mind you isn't much. But I guess it has to be love if it has been 2 months now and I still feel the heartache for him.
The littlest things anyone can say while conversing can make the mind switch to a thought I have not recall in ages. It is somewhat weird as when we were together I could never remember anything pleasant about him or us. All I could muster was the thought of betrayal and all the things he promised he'd do but failed miserably. It wasn't that he even tried to do anything, just couldn't be bothered. And what's worst, when I'm all geared up to leave, he tells me he's ready to make a change. After all the courage I've mustered and the self convincing I had to do with myself, he tells me he's ready.
A break up, the emotional turmoil oneself endures should not last for 2 months. At least if it does, it shouldn't be building up but should be declining. But there it is, mine isn't the least bit faltering. It is only stagnant or if I may say building up. Although as much as I try avoiding the thought, it creeps up on me or something would stir it up. How can I do this when the talk of something so random can stir up emotions.
There is so much to miss only now I realise that. I constantly ask myself if it is worth it to turn back but I am stubborn and I want to stick with my decision. The promise I made to myself for I know I am not ready to commit and as long as I am not the heartache is the price I pay. In years to come hopefully I would have grown up and commit to future bringing.
He seems to be happy without me although he tells me something else, I see smiles on his face. He is happy and therefore I am happy for him. The fact that he has he's job now, something I have been pushing him to do for ages but only comes around to doing it after all has failed. Why? The fact about being a better man and being more discipline only came about also after I pulled the plug. Why? again I ask myself. Yes, he left the door unlock to reuniting but how can I if a promise to myself has been made.
What more when it comes to feelings, it is definitely there, but when it comes to conversation, nothing can be achieved. We are 2 individuals that cannot even hold a conversation while sitting alone when I am one of the most talkative person you'd ever know. But then again trying to convince myself that it was all a big joke, I know all I'm doing is lie to myself.
It is frustrating having to think about it when you do not want to. It is something you can never control and I do not like not being in control especially when it comes with my own emotions. I miss him more than ever now that he isn't around but yet I know I am not ready for commitment. The whole 2 years, I really thought I wasn't really in love and after everything is over I guess I got my questions answered the only problem is when will it stop.
