Thank you for helping me to find myself again, to laugh and love again.
I never thought I'd say that. I never thought I'd see something good in you leaving. But now it all made sense. So, thank you - thank you from the bottom of my heart for leaving.
Thank you for giving up on me. You taught me how to survive on my own. You made me find myself again so I can live without you in my life. I was wondering what you hated about me. I was never enough for you. I tried so hard to please you that I forgot to love myself, especially all the parts you didn't like. You didn't accept me for who I am, you didn't see who I am. I was too demanding of myself that I forgot what it's like to be gentle, kind, what it's like to be your own person.
Thanks for lying. You taught me that no matter how honest and genuine people are, they will still lie to your face without a shred of conscience. You showed me that some people pretend all the time in a relationship just to keep the person. Just for the attention they crave. Just to fill your ego day after day.
So, thank you - thank you from the bottom of my heart for leaving.Thank you for putting yourself first. You forced me to do the same, to prioritize myself and my life. You taught me to choose myself again. When I chose you, it was the wrong decision. I realized that I don't want to be the second choice or option. Thank you for teaching me not to let anyone define my worth anymore.
Thank you for not fighting for me like I fought for you. You taught me that fighting for things that are not meant for me is nothing but a waste of time and energy. You taught me that you can't make someone love you because it will never happen and that when the time is right and the person is right, his heart and mine will fall in love. It will be simple. It will be less complicated. Now I know that it is impossible to change another's heart.
Thank you for leaving, for giving me the opportunity to now know exactly what I want and what kind of love I need. You made room for someone different, for the right person. You taught me the importance of self love and how it can protect me from people like you.
Thank you for leaving because I found again the only person I really need in my life - myself.
