Love can make you do crazy things.

I never had someone want to spend so much time with me so quickly.

But it came as fast as it went, and I was devastated.

Things were differenthe even said so himself.

He started becoming distant, and I didnt know what to do.

I asked anyone who would listen for advice to make this workmy friends, my family,evenReddit.

But I did all of that.

However, just because I was ready didnt mean he was.

I knew going to this festival was a bad idea.

The breakup was just too fresh, and I knew I wouldnt be able to handle it.

Spoiler alert: It didnt work, but we did it.

We ended up spending a week together in Arizona, and it was intense, to say the least.

It was the worst form of emotional whiplash.

It was everything I ever wanted right in front of my eyes, and it didnt want me back.

I mean, when two people love each other, it doesnt just go away.

I sighed, trying not to get emotional, even though that never stopped me before.

I wouldnt say closure, I said.

But, I think it gave me what I needed.

I mean, I cant help the way I feel.

It really hurts, but Ill get over it.

Saying I still love him would be putting it lightly.

I think about him all the time and only want whats best for him.

With that being said, love isnt enough to make a relationship keep going.

And it definitely wont work if the effort put into the relationship is one-sided.

The amount of love I have for this guy ended up being boundary-less, toxic, and unhealthy.

But sometimes its for the best.
