Intro...
young and naive when I first fell in love, in fact, I fell in love with the idea of being in love, it made me live differently, and I was always misunderstood.
The pain left me with the urge for revenge, forced to embrace a darkness that only consumed my soul, deprived me of feeling love or happiness, I trusted no one, I couldn't feel life around me, I couldn't keep life around me, everyone that tried was usually fed to that darkness. You could see that my soul was drained from my eyes and commitment from my every intentions.
It was not just about making a choice between him and me, it was about who she wanted me to be. She never wanted me to be that perfect boyfriend, and I made a mess trying to help her figure out her life. I was busy trying to save her and keep track of my life at the same time, in the process I created a lot of cracks and a lot of things skipped right through those cracks which destroyed our relationship from within.
I got to realise that doing things for someone for the sake of love and showing someone love are two different things. You could be busy making sacrifices that people didn't ask for or need all because you think it is the best for them, there is no harm is doing the right thing or trying, sometimes all people need is just you, and not what you are trying hard to provide for them. Being there for someone is priceless in the ups and downs of their lives. The mistakes we make is that we just want to do things for the ones we love, now reason with me, "when you do things", it means you are busy with something, something other than the one you love, which means the ones you love are no longer a priority but the thing you are doing, so you push them down your list while you are busy focusing on your new priority, I focused so much on doing a lot other than who I truly loved.
Piece of my regret, I was trying to be that perfect boyfriend that I gave myself and my relationship up.
