We tried and tried.

I believe because we cared.

You thought I was/would be happier and that I am doing better without you.

That wasn’t the case.

Not even close.

I didn’t have a choice.

You didn’t let me decide for myself.

You just ended it.

Stopped talking to me.

You decided for me., based on what you thought was best for me.

The only reason I stopped was because you asked me to.

You told me we should stop talking and not even be friends because I said I was happy and that you didn’t want to make me unhappy.

I was happy because we were talking.

The lines aren’t alway black and white.

There was so much color in between.

I just didn’t have a choice because you stopped responding and just couldn’t seem to be honest about being with another woman.

My existence to you just…. Stopped.

That is what crushed me 💔

The lies.
