Loving can hurt. Loving can hurt sometimes.
I’m not sure if you still remember the times we spent together. I do.
That doesn’t mean I haven’t moved on. I have, at least a little. Of course, it still hurts sometimes. It always will. But I’d just like to say thank you for the memories. Whenever I’m feeling down I look back to the time I spent with you. And while I’m filled with an immense sadness that it was never meant to be, I’m grateful. Grateful that for that short amount of time, I had the privilege of knowing you.
That I had the privilege of knowing –
What it meant to have feelings for someone.
What it meant to find a soulmate.
What it meant to love.
I hope that you felt it too.
I know that I’ll always remember you. That doesn’t mean I won’t ever fall in love again. I hope I will. It just means that you will always have a special place in my heart. My first love.
Thank you, for the memories. I’m sorry it was never meant to be. But I will never forget the love I felt for you.
Because it was beautiful. And it will always be.

I just contacted my first real love after 26 years.
After catching up over the course of a phone call, we texted a few times the next morning.
She said goodbye to me, and kept adding ‘Thanks For The Memories’ a couple of times.
I took it as a hint, and typed it into my browser.
Your letter is what came up, and I am sure that she was alluding to it.
It just fits too good.
It is as if she may have wrote it herself.
I am heartbroken all over again, although all the more thankful for what I have now.

Our memories have the same effect on all of our emotions and relationships, whether those memories are true or not.
