The end of a Good Thing(tm)
Its over. AC decided today, almost two years today after we (unofficially) started dating, that she could not contribute to this relationship anymore. Which has been happening since August or so…since her parents started pressuring her to drop me. So, finally, today, she has ended it.
She has been pushing me away for so long that the pain is only a dull ache. I still feel, however, that this is extremely sad. Because I feel that this is something that should have worked. I don’t think I will ever find someone as perfect for me as AC was, back before her parents started interfering. How she feels about me…I don’t know anymore.
To be fair, AC will say that it is not her parents….that she needed to concentrate totally on herself..in her words, “I have many things that I want to accomplish and do for myself that don’t involve anyone else”
I find this especially ironic given that she claims her notion of heaven is built on the relationships you build with other people. I guess those people just have to be already related to you by blood to count.
Sad to say, I am now and probably always will be bitter about the way this worked out. I think that that is one of my major weaknesses. And I can’t even decide that I want to work on that.
My condolences… sounds like a bad situation.
Eh, not so bad. Just very, very sad. At least for me. I have no idea how Candice feels about it. She hasn’t actually talked to me beyond the breakup email in about 2 weeks now.
The bitterness will fade. You might be surprised at how relieved you are in a year or two that things worked out this way. Because in the end, you ARE worth someone putting you and the relationship she shares with you first, above anything and anyone else. Never settle for anything else. You deserve nothing less.
