Dear You,

In our last conversation you made some points that I would LOVE to address. First point, I am the reason monogamy doesn’t work (despite never having cheated EVER)? Where do I go to apologise for this? Is there a board or committee that I can go and say sorry to? It seems like something I need to apologise for.

You said you loved me, but sweetheart if you love somebody you don’t make them cry themselves to sleep most nights. If you loved me you wouldn’t have called me the names you did. If you loved me you would have trusted me to hang out with my friends that were there a long time before you. What were you so insecure about? Why didn’t you believe that I was only going to be with you? As for you hoping your daughter never turns into me, well there are worse things. She could be a meth head shacked up with her dealer, grade 9 drop out. I have a plan for my life. Do you?

When you told me I was “punching” and that nobody said anything remotely bad about you. You do realise that I was asked on about a thousand occasions why I was with you because not only were you far less intelligent than myself but also not that great looking? Do you remember telling me I was fat and that “you were training everyday only to come home to me binge watching Netflix”? I trained in the mornings. I work nights. I have a six pack, you have a keg.

“I’m too much of a coward to kill myself so at least you don’t have to worry about that when you leave”. I planned the day I was going to do it. It was going to be on my birthday so my family didn’t have to think about me for more than one day a year. I was going to drink the rest of the clenbuterol in the pantry. I wasn’t too much of a coward, I just looked forward and realised there is life after you. I’m halfway through my nursing degree. Without you, Nelson and I will be moving to Canada, surely it isn’t that hard to get a dog through customs. We’ve spoken about it and as long as I knit him a coat he will be cool with sitting in a cage the entire flight there. Also he says he hates you.

You are a bully, you pride yourself on your skill of manipulation. You laugh about how you make your ex’s cry and how you make them feel like shit to the point they want to jump off a cliff. I should have seen the signs from the start, unfortunately I missed them and here we are. I loved you, now I hate you. Unfortunately you will never read this. And you will probably go and hurt another girl. Hopefully it isn’t your daughter.

Love Me
