I know this. I have known this since month 3 and continued to have him in my life for over a year and a half. Why? Honestly, because having him in my life for a few nights a month was better than being alone. Having him for a few nights allowed me to pretend that he was mine. Allowed me to pretend there was a man who loved me, stroked my hair and cuddled with me while we slept. Even if it was not true. We were using each other, and I have stopped it. Permanently, for good. Period.
I have walked away from my Addiction. On my own accord, without the advice from friends or the push from anyone. I have cut all ties with no explanation because by the time he realizes I am gone I will be strong enough to keep walking when he calls me to return. There is no one else, no one who will fill the empty nights left by him or fill the empty spot on my sofa the few nights he handed out when he felt ready. Somehow, I will get through them.
I am taking great care to clear out the imperfections in my life. My personal life was first, now I am working on my finances and somewhere in all of that I am continuing to find this woman. She is phenomenal, sweet, compassionate, loving, a great dancer who gives her all and deserves the same in return.
Until Next Time,
Peace & Blessings...

25champ,
ReplyDeleteThank you.
MrsTDJ,
Thanks. I have always known, I just wanted what I wanted ;)
Monique,
Yes, it is on my own accord. I did not tell anyone until after I deleted him from everything.
Luv,
No tears, LOL! One step at a time. Yes, we can do this!
Its always a blessing to lose some weight. Now there is room for the God approved MAN to arrive.
ReplyDeleteYou are lovely.
Hugs and claps to you! Clarity comes and you start picking up the pieces, clearing out the old, preparing for the new. I am proud of you.
ReplyDeleteJudging from the few post that I have read concerning your Addiction - and everything given by yourself since Day One, I believe one helluva power move has just been made.
ReplyDeleteIt is always hard to let go of "what you want!" I think I was overly mature in college and knew what I was seeking in a mate back then. I knew my love crush was not good for me, but i just could not let go at the time. Once I finally let go I realized it was not what I needed or wanted! Isn't it great?
