My girlfriend and I broke up last sunday. We dated for almost a year, but we talked for months before that.

Time with her honestly flew by… all of the shows we shared together, all of the laughs, the gifts we gave each other.

Every day was so special and amazing, and I’ll always be the luckiest man alive to have known her the way I did. I still have everything she’s given me and to be honest i dont think i’ll ever get rid of them. my favorite present being a disposable camera I love using. She was THE BEST gift giver… which is a trait im still jealous of.

I wouldn’t trade anything for the time I spent dating her. We didn’t have a messy breakup. It was probably the most mature emotional conversation I’ve ever had. We still very much love each other, but she’s going through some things mentally. She’s working all the time, we dont get to see each other as much as we would like probably.

But I hope she knows I’ll always support her in any way I can. I think she’s the smartest, most caring, and most beautiful girl ever. Even if sometimes she doesn’t think that, and i hope she doesn’t hate herself for her decision.

Our last night together was filled with tears and hugs. I would just hold her and we cried together, I dont think I’ve ever cried that much. Knowing someone you love is going through something, but there’s not a lot you can do for them… and having to let them go.

Hopefully down the line things work out, and we can be together again. maybe that’s holding on to false hope, but no one has ever made me feel the way she has made me feel. and I don’t think i’ll ever forget about her, I see her in everything. And honestly, i hope i always do.

sometimes i wish i didn’t feel so strongly like I do, how much easier it’d be to go through things like this. but truly it is such a gift to be loved, and to love someone so strongly that you feel connected to them. Not just romantically, but platonically too.
