Goodbye

And with that word, it all ended... I allowed myself the alloted 16 seconds of pain, stopped at Starbucks and drove home.

I can't do this anymore. I have tried everything (short of handholding and spoonfeeding) but it seems like it's never enough. I'm not one to give up easily but this time, I know that it's over for me. This has taken a big toll out of my sanity and it shouldn't be. I have given you every opportunity but they went nowhere. I wonder how many second chances you will get in your lifetime...

So goodbye. Thank you for the memories. I will always be grateful for taking me to places (literally and figuratively) where I've never been. The journey has not been easy but no one said it would be. And if we meet again, I hope that we have become better persons because of this.

I love you.
