Dear One That Got Away

dymond phillips • Jul 04, 2017
Well I’m writing this letter to you from your city. When we first met years ago, who would have knew where we would have been. You started off as my bestfriend I never thought we would have ended up in a relationship. It wasn't easy, but we were growing together. Being with you wasn't like being with anybody else. You treated me like nobody ever did, you made me feel like I was your princess. You showed me what true love could be, and I thank you so much for putting up with me the way you did. First let me start by saying I’m so proud of the person you’ve become. I see somebody just had a birthday. Can’t believe you're already 21, I imagined me being next to you through this journey, but it’s ok. Every time I see you on my timeline, I can't help but think of the past! Honestly, when I think about my life and future, it hurts that I know you won't be in it. Your heart is so pure and the way you treated me was amazing. You showed me what I deserve and because of you I'll never go back to dealing with basic guys again. On top of that, you are so fine. Every time I see a picture of you, I send it in the group chat like, "Issa Snack!"
 
 Thank you for introducing me to real - now I really hate lames, maybe that’s why it’s so hard for me to move on. The plan that God has for your life is crazy and I can’t wait to see you blossom to all that God has called you to be. Second let me say, you got this. I know you always get on yourself about not being exactly where you want to be in life but I promise you you're doing way better than a lot of these guys out here. You are a very unique man, and whoever your next girlfriend is, will be one lucky girl. I just want to apologize for my fuckups, and childish ways. It is so true that you never know just what you have until it’s gone. When I lost you, I lost more than a boyfriend. I lost my motivation, my best friend, my world and so much more. I wrote you this letter because I need to let go, if its meant to be it’ll come back, but if not it wasn’t meant. I pray that God gives me the strength to let go because every reaction has a consequence and losing you was the hardest consequence I have endured. I can’t lie and say that I don't miss you and think about you almost everyday. I know we are still friends but I can't hope but imagine us getting it together one day. I'm sorry, You deserve better and maybe it was the wrong time but who knows what the future holds. I just want to thank you for being you and being in my life. 
 
I know we agreed that we are better off not being a couple, but that is honestly very hard for me. I'm trying to move on, but any man that I talk to doesn't meet the mark. I know, I shouldn't compare people, but when I do, they aren't you. In my eyes, you're perfect for me and I know we are meant to be. I don't think you get how hard it is to have causal conversations with someone who you thought you would have forever with. Moving on is hard, break-ups are hard, starting over with somebody is hard, but I can't continue to be this girl who can't move on. I just wish we could start over, but I know that can't happen so I will try to move forward with my life, as I know, you're doing with yours. I can go on and on forever but the more I write the more emotional I become. So keep doing you don’t let the world change you, you're different!
