Dear D,

   I’m writing this letter just to let you know that I’m much better now But I’m still not ready. Not ready to trust people, not ready to love. We were together for almost a year and all you awarded me were three long-term, breakups. Remember the first one? It was because you cheated. The second time you broke it off and the last and final time was when you showed me those precious pictures of your ex girlfriend and nudes of a random girl on your phone. I’m thankful to you because you made me realise why I shouldn’t get back with you and why that was the final breakup.

   I also wanted to clear out a few misunderstandings; I’m not into you, I don’t want you back amd I’m not jealous of her. If I take the high road by being nice to her, it does not mean I’m trying to get close to you. If I run into you somewhere say hi, it does not mean that I’m trying to spark old flames. It simply means that I’m mature enough and you’re not.

    Not everything is about you. If I dress up pretty and go to the same party as you, it’s not because I wanna run into you. It’s because I have a life and I’m living it. And also because I don’t care about you anymore. You should know that because I was shy, it doesn’t mean I didn’t want you to kiss me. It was simply your lack of guts that you didn’t. My world does not revolve around you anymore and I don’t have to worry about your complaints.

    This letter is just to let you know that I’m happy and I don’t need you anymore to be happy. I don’t need anybody to make me happy. I am my own happiness and I thank you for making me realise that.

Sincerely,

The girl you let get away.
