Happy days are here again
After two years of living with this guy, I had noticed that the past 6 months of our relationship we had spent doing nothing but fighting. Little things started adding up, and one day I flipped and told him we needed to break up. I packed up my stuff (crying the whole time) and started putting stuff in my car. It didn’t seem to bother him – AT ALL. That really drove me crazy, and it hurt like hell. So, he helped me put the big stuff in the car, and gave me a hug (that was sad too)... and I was on my way to work. He called me at work that night n my boss told him I was busy – he knew what kinda temper he has and didn’t want me feelin sad lol, as he put it... anyways, so im thinkin maybe he was callin to apoligize or somethin so I called him back. he wanted to kno if I took the vodka lol, so him n his buddies could go get drunk... ughghghgghhh grr...
Anyways, after 2 days of feeling let down, and thinking that I had jus wasted 2 1/2 years of my life, he called me and told me everything he SHOULD had been telling me all along – that he loved me, he was sorry for being an ass, and that he promised that he would change. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t all his fault, I had some changing I needed to do too, but him actually putting his feelings out on the line, that was a big step. That’s something that he never did...
Anyways, we ended up getting back togetheri.. it’s 2 years later, and I think we’ve only been in 1 little arguement.. before it was 1 or 2 a day... so my LONG message is – if u have something you really want to say, but you dont know how – figure out a way to. If you feel a certain way, but you figure your signifigant other KNOWS how you feel, don’t risk it-- jus tell him/her.. they will love you for it.. and if they dont.. forget em, cos u need someone who’s gonna want you to express their love for you as much as you want to for them.
