Sometimes in life you just simply have to move on. You will have to leave love behind. Sometimes it will hurt like crazy while sometimes it will feel good, even really good and perfectly okay and you’ll be satisfied with it. Sometimes leaving love behind will heighten your friendship and make it stronger, while sometimes it will just tare you apart inside.
Recently I’ve had to leave two people behind. One of them is Matt, one of them is a guy I never really got around to write about. In both cases I today feel really good about it. It happened at almost the same time. Sometimes life works that way.
When having left them I think I tried to quickly fill the void with something else, which did not work out very well. The experience taught me something though. That leaving love doesn’t have to hurt, it can be a good thing, and it can be an improvement to your current situation.
Leaving Matt, was not by choice. Not his, nor mine. Things in life change so you can’t see each other anymore. Okay we didn’t have a loving relationship, but I still loved him, and he knew it. I knew we wouldn’t be lasting when we met. But we had our fun, and played a lot. He helped me open my mind a little, I trusted him to try new things with me, I dared to say what I wanted to try, and I dared to try things he wanted to. It was a really good experience, and he was exactly what I needed in my life when I met him.
We will see each other again, eventually. Just not right now, and not regularly.
For the other guy. I’m not sure if we ever were anything. We were hanging in the air, for way to long. Nothing happening. We not having time, him not being ready. The conversation we had when he told me that it was time to stop this was an incredibly good conversation. I actually had my mom listening in, and she was amazed at how nicely we conversed about it.
I was crying, I feel tears falling now when I think about it. That doesn’t mean it feels bad. It actually feels like a good thing, we’re back to having a proper friendship, instead of being worried if things we say will be wierd in other perspectives, and I love it.
They are both in my life, but we’ve left the Love. And I dont mind.
