Así es como pierdes a una mujer que vio lo peor de ti y se quedó

Una cosa que siempre me ha hecho sentir orgullosa de mí misma es que soy una mujer a vida o muerte. Cuando amo, amo hasta los huesos.

I’m there for you through the good times and the bad times.

I don’t count mistakes and I always find a way to make things better. My mind is open and my heart is big.

I know how to forgive and I know how to see through your pain. I’m a one of a kind woman and all of that wasn’t enough to make you realize that you should have treated me better than you did.

Te vi en tu peor momento. Te vi cuando estabas en lo más bajo, actuando como todo lo que temías.

I saw you when you acted exactly like you said you would never act. Maybe that’s what you couldn’t stand.

Quizá te avergonzabas de ti mismo y te desquitabas conmigo.

Well, the saddest thing is that your problems aren’t mine but I would have gladly helped you with them if you hadn’t ruined it all.

You started to act so insecurely. I wasn’t allowed to do anything without you. You started acting selfishly.

Everything you said became a manipulation tactic and you wouldn’t let me breathe.

On top of all that, you didn’t even care to make me feel loved or cared for. You were possessive yet cold.

I got tired of giving my best to a person who didn’t deserve me. I knew that life wasn’t about constantly meeting the needs of others but mutual understanding.

Sabía que había algo más en la vida que verte cometer el mismo error una y otra vez sin cambiar nunca y sin darte cuenta de lo que yo hacía por ti.

Siempre tuve problemas para dejar a la gente y esto fue lo más difícil que tuve que hacer, pero lo hice.

You didn’t break my spirit so I still knew my worth. I knew that if I didn’t leave you, I would end up broken and lost. And I’m not that kind of woman.

I’m not someone you can control, someone you can use as an emotional punching bag.

I’m very aware of myself and the things I can do and give. I’m aware that I’m rare. That’s exactly why I know you will regret losing me once you realize I’m gone forever.

It takes me so much time to leave someone but once I’m gone, I’m gone forever. You have lost me.

My heart is broken but my spirit is whole. I’ll find a way to mend my heart but you will never find a way back to me.

Nunca debiste pensar que tu debilidad estaba en tu dolor, sino en la forma en que dejaste que te controlara. Dejaste que tu miedo se convirtiera en tu inseguridad y luego dejaste que tu inseguridad matara nuestro amor.

Love isn’t fear or control or walking on eggshells to stop yourself from triggering someone.

El amor tiene que ver con la honestidad, con la profundidad de los sentimientos y con ser vulnerable ante la persona amada.

Vulnerability takes courage and you didn’t have it. You let your bad side consume you and you sacrificed our love.

I know you enough to know you won’t change, so I needed to leave you. One day you will think of us and ask yourself how you failed to recognize the true love I was giving you.

We could have healed together but you choose pain. I didn’t. That’s why I’m here, writing this as I contemplate what was once our love.

I hope you’re not doing the same thing to someone else. I hope my love has taught you to face your demons, rather than blame others.

Mientras tanto, reconozco la fuerza de mi alma. He aprendido a tener límites. Por fin comprendo que no todo el mundo merece mi tiempo ni mi amor.

Aprendí que para que el amor tenga sentido, dos personas tienen que trabajar juntas e intercambiar energía.

Love takes two and it’s about reciprocity. Una vez que fui consciente de ello, mi corazón empezó a sanar lentamente.

Today I can proudly say that I’m moving on because now I know I didn’t lose you but you lost me.
