Jared Welch :
I did more with her in two months than her toxic ex ever did for her in nine years. We made memories, spent time together, laughed together, talked about everything, and built something that felt real to me. She constantly told me I was an amazing guy, said she would never leave, talked highly of me to her family, and made me feel like I truly mattered. She made me believe I was different, that what we had was special, and that she genuinely wanted a future with me.
Then, just seven days ago, everything changed. She went back to him, and suddenly I was being told that two months wasn’t a long time, that I was wrong for caring as much as I did, and that I was nothing more than a rebound. Hearing that hurt more than I can put into words because she once told me that wasn’t her intention. She made me feel loved, valued, and wanted, only for it to all disappear in the blink of an eye.
I hate to say it, but I miss her every second of every day. No matter how hard I try to keep my mind busy, she finds her way back into my thoughts. I miss the conversations, the good morning texts, the goodnight calls, and having someone to share every part of my day with. I miss seeing her smile, hearing her laugh, and the way she looked at me when everything felt okay. Everywhere I turn, there’s a reminder of her. Songs we listened to together come on, and suddenly I’m right back in those moments wishing things had turned out differently.
It hurts going from having someone who felt like your best friend, your partner, and your safe place to having nothing at all. One day they’re a huge part of your life, and the next they’re gone. The silence is deafening, and the emptiness they leave behind feels impossible to fill. She filled a void in my life that I didn’t even realize was there, and now that she’s gone, it feels like that piece of me was ripped away all over again. What hurts the most is knowing that while I’m sitting here missing her every second, she’s no longer a part of my life the way she was before.
