Es hora de que me elija a mí misma antes que a tu casi amor

He decidido que he terminado. He decidido que no voy a perder más mi tiempo esperando que me ames. He decidido que merezco más.

I know that I deserve to be loved. I know there is someone out there for me who will give me everything I need, who will keep me in his arms always—not only when he feels like it.

Maybe it’s foolish of me, but Sigo creyendo en el amor incondicionalahora más que nunca.

Now that you’ve crushed my dreams of spending my life with you, I’m even more sure I will find someone who will.

I’m just tired of interpreting your mixed signals. I’m tired of playing this game you made up. I don’t like the rules because they only suit you.

I fell in love with you because I thought there was more to you. I’ve seen your potential. I’ve seen that if you wanted, you could have been almost perfect.

But you decided to stay the same. You decided to be an almost lover. Well, I don’t need that.

Nunca fuiste claro con tus intenciones. Nunca dijiste lo que realmente querías. Porque si hubiera sabido que querías esto, nunca lo habría firmado.

It’s like signing a pact with the devil—you’ll get everything you want but there is always a price. Mine was a broken heart.

Me hiciste creer que íbamos a funcionar. Me besaste apasionadamente and sent me love texts. You stared at me while I wasn’t looking.

You slept by my side and pretended like nothing happened the next day. Friends don’t do that.

Te di lo mejor de mí y no obtuve nada a cambio, salvo promesas a medias y palabras falsas. De hecho, lo único que obtuve de ti fueron palabras, nunca actos.

That wasn’t enough for me. I could have spent my whole life waiting for you to do what you said you would.

Pero, afortunadamente, tuve el valor de cortar contigo y seguir buscando a alguien que hiciera todo lo que tú nunca hiciste.

What you could never realize is that love doesn’t come in bits. It either is or it isn’t.

Querías mantenerme en un punto intermedio. Querías mantenerme en la zona del casi, dándome de vez en cuando lo justo para que me quedara.

You gave me false hope. That’s why I have no respect for you. You could have been a man and said you don’t love me to my face.

Instead, you falsely reciprocated my feelings. You tried to fool me, but you couldn’t fake love.

No one can do that. You can try, but you’ll fall apart at a certain point because you’re not happy being with someone who isn’t the right one for you.

I’ve decided I deserve so much more than you. I’ve realized I deserve the true love which you could never give me.

I’ve decided to move on even if it hurts me—and it does.

I’ve decided I should take that risk because I don’t want to spend the rest of my life unhappy, thinking what would happen if I’d left.

Now, I’m turning over the next page of my life and leaving you behind. It’s time for me to write the next chapter of my life—a happier one where I finally choose myself.

Me elegí a mí mismo porque I don’t want to settle with someone who is uncertain about me. I know what I want from love and that is not what you gave me.

I don’t want a forced kiss goodbye when I leave the house. I don’t want a text you send me just because you think you have to. This is why I chose myself this time.

It’s because I want everything you almost do to be done to the fullest.

Me elegí a mí mismo porque I’m tired of second guessing everything you do. I’m tired of thinking through your decisions to find the real motive because I know it’s not me.

I chose myself because I’m better off without that.

I chose myself because I want to give myself a chance to meet someone who will do things because of me—a man who will do things (even the ones he doesn’t like) because he wants to do something for me.

Me elegí a mí mismo porque I don’t love esta versión de mí mismo while I’m with you. I don’t want to be exhausted and empty and you made me that way.

Every negative thing you say hits me right in the heart. Every word wears me down each day more and more and I don’t want to become that version of myself.

I chose myself because I need someone to lean on and that’s not you. For now, that someone is me and maybe in the future, it will be someone else.

When you push a woman like me to her limits, she will crack and you will lose her forever. You’ll probably regret it, but it’s going to be too late.

Me elegiré a mí mismo cada vez because I don’t want to be anyone’s second choice. I think I deserve to be someone’s priority as that someone is going to be mine.

I want to be someone’s girlfriend because he wants only me and no one else. I want him to be happy that we are going to spend the rest of our lives together.

I will choose myself every time because I don’t need someone who will hide the fact that we are dating because he thinks he probably could have found someone better.

Quiero a alguien que me coja de la mano con orgullo y que grite mi nombre al mundo.

Quiero a alguien que me presente a sus amigos y familiares porque le importo lo suficiente.

Me elegiré a mí mismo cada vez because I don’t want to settle for less than I deserve. I don’t want someone who will love me almost.

Quiero a alguien que haga un esfuerzo adicional por mí porque yo haré lo mismo por él. Quiero un amor que me dé mariposas en el estómago.

Quiero un hombre que sea lo último en lo que piense cuando me duerma y lo primero que recuerde cuando me despierte.

Me elegiré a mí mismo cada vez because I don’t want someone who won’t accept me for me. I want someone who will love just the way I am.

Quiero a alguien que conozca todos mis defectos y los acepte porque sabe que nadie es perfecto y yo tampoco.

Me elegiré a mí misma porque quiero a alguien que no seas tú.

Me elegiré a mí mismo cada vez porque Quiero etiquetas and I want to know exactly where our relationship is going. I don’t want to hold myself back.

I’ve got a lot of love and I want to find someone who will take it and love me back just the same as I will love him.

Quiero que las cosas me resulten familiares y cómodas. Quiero sentirme segura y contigo nunca me sentí así.

I’m not sorry I was with you. I’m sorry that it took me a long time to realize that we shouldn’t be together.

I don’t want your almost love. I don’t need it. I don’t deserve it.

I finally realized I should put myself first from now on. Because up until now, I’ve been doing the opposite and it didn’t take me anywhere except toward disappointment, sadness, and pain.

I’ve been trying so hard to make you love me completely, but you were stuck at almost.

I’m sorry I didn’t give up earlier to finish this agony the both of us lived in.

I’m sorry that I wanted you to stay but you chose to push me away.
