So you say you want to take me out for coffee, and just talk.

(The careful, hopeful beginning we all experience each and every time.)

You still haunt me even though we are going on close to three years of breaking up.

It’s Hard To Date When You Don’t Love Yourself

Alivia Latimer

There isnt a day which goes by that I dont think of you in some capacity.

The hurt, the happiness, the love, the emptiness.

Sometimes,

I do.

But that was the thing.

I think we left each other long before we physically did.

See, leaving means more than walking away.

Its the moment you look over at a person, and you dont recognize them anymore.

Its an awful feeling, the moment a heart breaks.

Maybe its over a lukewarm cup of coffee

Or an untouched meal.

Or maybe its only through a computer screen.

Just a few short words to tell you:

Its over.

The thing about endings is that we never get to choose when they happen,

They just do.

And you honestly shouldnt want to.

Because a love which isnt reciprocated hurts more than never being in love at all.

You try and you try and you try, but you cant make them want you.

Its one of the saddest moments you’re free to experience but also one which can free you.
