I think the man he is and the man I always longed for him to be are just different. I think he wants so badly to be able to be that person; the one who would talk deeply for hours, the one who could communicate love in extraordinary ways, the one who could think beyond self first, the one who makes a conscious effort every-single-day.
Romanticizing Loss

This resonates so deeply. I’m always shocked by how strangers can beautifully speak the exact emotions I’m feeling. I wanted that “talk for hours” type of love, the selfless love, but I had to accept that wasn’t who he was. If I stayed, that was the type of love I must want, so I have to let go. Unfortunately the heart clings fiercely to love, even if it isn’t the right kind for you.
