“Promises are made to be broken”
No. Promises are made to be kept. And if you don’t plan to keep them, you should at least be brave enough to tell the person what you did. Even if you don’t want anyone to know, you should at least tell the girl you promised to wait for, that you had been telling since you guys were third graders that you guys were going to be together someday. Yah, she should be allowed to know, so she’s not sitting around waiting for something that was never coming in the first place. Because she’s probably tired of all the fucking lies she gets told, all the secrets that she finds out about the wrong way, and all of the promises that meant something to her being broken. She’s also probably so fucking tired of always feeling stupid whenever you’re not around, because she has to sit there wondering “does he really love me?”. So she shouldn’t have to find out in the middle of a big rush at work that you don’t really love her, that it was all a lie, and that not only did you lie, but you were using her, just like everyone does eventually. So let’s have it. Why can’t you just come out and tell me that the promise you made means nothing anymore? What are you so afraid of? Hurting me? Or facing facts? In a sick way, I’m glad you did this. Now I’m free to do what I want. I don’t have to worry about what you’re going to think if you find out. I don’t have to worry about some stupid pact we made. It’s like I don’t even know you anymore. In fact, I wish I didn’t. When I look back and think of the days I wasted with you and the things I threw away for you and the nights I spent crying over you, I feel sick.
I have better options these days.
We always knew this would happen, deep down. We grew apart somewhere down the line, and here we are; wondering what the next move is.
When Thanksgiving comes, I won’t visit you.
When Christmas rolls by, I won’t send you a gift.
On your birthday, don’t expect a card, or even a call.
I can be over you. I just never really tried. Now I realize how easy it is and how lucky I am to be away from you.
