I Am Ashamed of Myself

The reward for the worst best friend probably belongs to me. I was cruel and vicious, I made her cry and yet she still loves me.. laying here falling asleep on the phone with her, I don't deserve it. I accused her of being a monster, while I became the worst one of all. The guilt is eating away at me and I know, it's never going to go away. All I could ever think about was that you weren't mine, all I ever cared about was that you wouldn't love me anymore. But in truth, I never stopped to think about what my words and actions did to you.. I just bitterly held onto the past mistakes you made and jeapordized what was left of our friendship. Change scares me, even though I thought of myself as an advocate for change. I guess that kind of makes me a hypocrite and an Idiot. I doubt she will ever know the true extent of my feelings she was my first love after all, but she will always remember the extent of pain that I caused her. To love someone more than yourself is a scary feeling and I wasn't ready for it.. to be honest, I don't know if I'll ever be ready for it. Experiencing first hand how quickly love turns into anger in that brief moment will haunt me more than any nightmare.

The fact that you understand all this and can articulate it so well says a lot about you and unlike many, you will be able to move forward and be a much better partner in the future. It's still sad though, that sometimes we have to hurt others to learn and become better ourselves.

Thank you, your response means a lot to me. I only hope that I can find the strength to climb out of this hole of self pity so that I can be a become a better person.

@Tripp93 Glad I could help. You sound like you're on your way.

Once the dust settles, she will remember your love too.
But sometimes, people go too far from each other to be together and you must let them go.

@SW-User thank you and I know you're right.. but it's hard for me to tell the difference between letting go and giving up
SW-User
@Tripp93 Maybe realistically they both mean the same in how they transpire. But what differs is the attitude. Letting go requires care. Giving up requires tiredness of the situation.
Still, you cannot hold on to something that is screaming to be let gone. Sometimes you just have to let them go to live their lives, as you live yours.

Everyone makes mistakes, if the feelings are strong enough both ways the relationship may be worth attempting to fix.

@Tripp93 What’s her take on it all?
Tripp93 · 26-30, M
[@MellyMel22 she's sorry for everything that she did but she doesn't want to fix things

@Tripp93 Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. But this post sounds as if you’re saying you were wrong. You should be honest about your feelings before you walk away, at least you’ll never ask yourself what if you had.. ❤
