Nunca me gustaron las segundas oportunidades. Siempre pens\u00e9 que darle a alguien una segunda oportunidad significaba darle la oportunidad de herirme a\u00fan m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n

Siempre pens\u00e9 que una segunda oportunidad equival\u00eda a una segunda ruptura de un coraz\u00f3n ya roto.<\/p>\n

And the thing with a broken heart is that once it\u2019s broken it can\u2019t be repaired by the person who caused it to break. That\u2019s why I still don\u2019t know why I decided to give you a second chance.  <\/i><\/p>\n

La parte del perd\u00f3n fue f\u00e1cil. Te perdon\u00e9 r\u00e1pidamente. Nunca fui de esas personas que guardan rencor.<\/p>\n

Me pediste perd\u00f3n y te lo di, sin preguntas. Me cost\u00f3 m\u00e1s perdonarme a m\u00ed mismo por perdonarte a ti. <\/b><\/p>\n

Al principio, no hab\u00eda forma de que te dejara entrar de nuevo. Estaba decidida a que lo nuestro hab\u00eda terminado y punto.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, I hadn\u2019t excluded you from my life. I still returned your texts from time to time. I let you stay close to me even though we weren\u2019t together anymore.<\/p>\n

Incluso cuando no nos mand\u00e1bamos mensajes durante mucho tiempo, segu\u00edas estando en mi mente.<\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t able to get you out of my system. Afterwards, we had a period when we hadn\u2019t had any contact for months.<\/p>\n

Te ped\u00ed que no te pusieras en contacto conmigo, pensando que eso me ayudar\u00eda a superarte antes. Pero siempre estuviste en mi coraz\u00f3n a\u00fan magullado.<\/p>\n

\"mujer<\/p>\n

Parec\u00eda que lo peor era m\u00e1s superar el h\u00e1bito de pensar en ti que dejarte ir como persona. Pens\u00e9 que todo lo que sent\u00eda por ti era s\u00f3lo una creaci\u00f3n en mi cabeza. <\/b><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why I decided to try and find my happiness with somebody else. <\/i>I remember convincing myself that I didn\u2019t feel anything anymore for you. That you were just a distant memory.<\/p>\n

Y fue bien durante alg\u00fan tiempo. Al menos eso cre\u00eda yo. Era feliz con esa persona.<\/p>\n

Me conced\u00eda todos mis deseos, me trataba como a una reina. Era refrescante estar con alguien que se embriagaba conmigo. Me sent\u00eda segura. \u00c9l nunca iba a lastimarme como t\u00fa lo hiciste.<\/p>\n

Then I saw you after a long, long time. And just like that, I realized it wasn\u2019t over yet. <\/b><\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t over you.<\/b> We looked at each other long before we even spoke a single word, the feelings so intense that I felt all the pain and all the love I had for you – they were still there. They were deep down inside of me and they surfaced when I saw you.<\/p>\n

Cuando por fin hablamos, consegu\u00ed recomponerme y hacerme el duro. Eras t\u00fa el que estaba desorientado. Te temblaban las manos y apenas pod\u00edas decir frases claras.<\/p>\n

Por un breve momento, sent\u00ed que estaba ganando. Supongo que quer\u00eda que te sintieras tan impotente como yo cuando... me haces da\u00f1o<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But it was just a brief moment; I didn\u2019t want to hurt you back. You asked me, \u201cAre you happy with him?\u201d<\/i> y dije que s\u00ed.<\/p>\n

As we got deeper into conversation, I was just more and more aware of how I\u2019d missed you like crazy. You asked, \u201c\u00bfTodav\u00eda sientes algo por m\u00ed? \u00bfTodav\u00eda cuida de m\u00ed<\/a>?\u201d <\/i>y dije, \u201cI care, but it\u2019s too late.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

\"foto<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s never too late,\u201d <\/i><\/b>usted dijo<\/b>. \u201cI will always have hope that you will give me a second chance.\u201d<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

And I saw your eyes filled with tears. I couldn\u2019t believe it. I had never seen you like that. You were the toughest man I had ever met.<\/p>\n

Ahora estabas d\u00e9bil y derrumb\u00e1ndote ante mis ojos, incapaz de encontrar las palabras adecuadas para expresar cu\u00e1nto lo sent\u00edas y lo mucho que me quer\u00edas de vuelta.<\/a><\/p>\n

It shook me to see you so repentant. I hadn\u2019t expected it. You were never good at showing your feelings and you just took me by surprise.<\/p>\n

Apenas pude aguantar el resto de la conversaci\u00f3n. Despu\u00e9s, me fui directamente a casa y me ech\u00e9 a llorar. Pens\u00e9 que era m\u00e1s fuerte que eso.<\/p>\n

I thought I was happy and safe with him and that you were a part of my past. I realized it wasn\u2019t happiness I had with him; it was an escape from you.<\/p>\n

So, I broke up with him. I realized that regardless of what I decided to do with me and you, that it was unfair to him. It\u2019s unfair to receive somebody\u2019s love and not be able to give it back.<\/p>\n

Lo siguiente que tuve que admitir ante mi orgulloso yo fue que mi coraz\u00f3n segu\u00eda junto a ti. Nunca lo hab\u00eda perdido de vista. Eras y sigues siendo el \u00fanico hombre al que he amado.<\/p>\n

\"pareja<\/p>\n

Poco a poco te dej\u00e9 volver a mi vida. Ten\u00eda mucho miedo. Sab\u00eda que volver contigo significaba dejar mi coraz\u00f3n a la intemperie, desprotegido y con un alto riesgo de que me lo volvieras a romper. Ten\u00eda miedo de c\u00f3mo volver\u00eda a recomponerlo si me decepcionabas de nuevo.<\/p>\n

Pero, pasar tiempo contigo me hizo darme cuenta de que hab\u00edas cambiado. Hiciste exactamente lo que necesitaba que hicieras.<\/p>\n

You still weren\u2019t good with words but your actions spoke louder. You showed me that you were truly sorry and that you were a changed man.<\/p>\n

I still can\u2019t believe that you are next to me, that I was able to surpass my pride and forgive you for everything.<\/p>\n

I still can\u2019t believe you changed. You know that I didn\u2019t believe in changes and I didn\u2019t believe in second chances.<\/p>\n

En lo que s\u00ed creo es en el amor que siento por ti. Creo en arriesgarse. Creo que algunas personas valen la pena el riesgo. Creo en m\u00ed misma, en que ser\u00e9 lo suficientemente fuerte para sobrevivir a esto si vuelves a hacerme da\u00f1o. <\/i><\/p>\n

Me hiciste creer en las segundas oportunidades. Pero tienes que saber que esta segunda oportunidad es otra forma de decir \u00faltima oportunidad.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

S<\/i><\/b>o, I am giving you and this love one last chance, with an open mind and with all my heart. So  please don\u2019t waste it, because the only thing I know for sure is that <\/i><\/b>no habr\u00e1 m\u00e1s oportunidades<\/i><\/b>.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
