1. It started when she slid into my DM.

2. It started when I answered her DM.

3. I started to see her as different from other girls.

3. I remember practicing in the mirror how to say the three little words.

4. I flopped in front of her! I was scared to say the three little words.

5. I did tell her, and the new journey began.

6. I started to treat her like the Queen that she is.

When he told me the three little words, I was beyond the moon.  

I even told the moon about us and how happy I was.  

He gave me everything I thought was not possible.  

He treated me like the only Queen to ever exist in this universe.  

He was the man for me,  

The one for me.

7. I limited time with friends.  

7. I limited time with my hobbies.  

8. She started asking for things I couldn’t give.  

8. She started asking for things I couldn’t afford.  

8. She started to act awkward around me.

I fell in love with this guy.  

Nobody could tell or convince me otherwise.  

But love alone was never enough.  

I loved him so much, but he was not able to provide everything for me.  

Everything he did now felt like a burden to me.

9. I realized that I was losing her.  

10. She asked for separation, and I gave it to her with just “OKAY.”  

11. I started to ask myself if “OKAY” was a good answer.  

11. I started to think, what if she was testing me?  

11. I realized I was thinking about her too much.

I really got the time I needed from him.  

But was it all worth it?  

Were all the materialistic things worth it?  

I was pressured by friends, but where are they now?  

They all left for better, and I am now left depressed.  

I started to miss my man.

12. I started to miss her.  

12. I started to miss us.  

12. I cried with my friends for us.  

13. I was single and ready to mingle.

I had no one to cry to.  

All my friends found better with new people.  

Who am I to run to?

I don’t hate her, but I felt broken.  

I was sad and starting to miss us.  

I moved on with my mind, not my heart.  

I started to feel guilty for not asking why.  

I started to be curious about why she left me.  

I got the information that I lacked the materialistic things that all her friends got from their boyfriends.  

I started to realize that she was not appreciating me.  

I never thought of going back to her again after knowing the reasons.

Regret is all I am left with, and there is nothing better I can do.  

I fell victim to loving friends and not appreciating people who were there for me.  

People who would pour their hearts out for me.  

People who would do anything for me, only because of loving things that were not for me.  

I learned and have changed myself for the better.  

But will I ever find someone who will appreciate and love me the way he did?  

Will I ever find love again?  

I miss him, but I know he has found better, and I love that for him.
