To my first love,
Things are going great since you left. My friendships are flourishing, my parents and I are closer than before, my grades are getting better. I’m captain of my culinary team! I know you always were so very supportive of my extra curriculars, but i can’t reach you because you have my blocked. I’ve also started working out! i always used to tell you that i hate physical activity but i feel so free and alive when i do work out.
There’s all these good things in my life that i want to tell you but i can’t. I can’t bring myself to message you. I looked through our old photos and just cried. Cried because I miss our memories, cried because I miss you, and cried because I trusted you and you betrayed me.
You like to say the breakup was my fault, but you’re the one who cheated. You’re the one who decided to sleep with other girls. You’re the one who decided to continuously bully me throughout the entire relationship. I loved you, and because I loved you I wanted to forgive you for so long, but I can’t be the girl who runs back to what broke her. I refuse to be that girl. I’ve tried dating since the breakup but i don’t know if i can learn to trust someone after being cheated on.
My life is better without you, and I want you to know that.
