Chiama solo perché è ubriaco e solo

Non rispondete al telefono.

It’s the call you’ve been waiting for, isn’t it? It’s the sound you have heard ringing in your sleep for so many nights.

It’s your first look at your phone and the hope it’s his number—calling to apologize, to tell you he loves you and wants you back.

It’s him and all you’ve been waiting for and you’re fingers are itching to pick up, aren’t they?

Ma, prima di raccogliere, c'è qualcosa di cui dovete essere consapevoli.

Quante volte vi ha fatto questo?

You’ve tried to move on so many times, but somehow he always gets in your way. Either he calls, texts, shows up, or you hear his name in your head and you drop everything.

You drop everything waiting for him to spread his arms and welcome you in his hugs, but it isn’t really happening how you’ve pictured it.

Riesce a farti sentire come nessun altro.

Because you gave him that much power. You’ve allowed him to become so important and you can’t help but want him.

Ma se ti concedessi una settimana per pensare a lui senza che i tuoi sentimenti offuschino il tuo giudizio, le cose si cristallizzerebbero un po'.

You’d see he isn’t as special as you thought. He isn’t even average, but you made him perfect and #1. That’s what you do—you give people much more credit than they deserve.

Ma si continua a dimenticare che giocatore sia.

See, whenever he rings you up, you’re the first to show up. You’re like those duty officers that are first to arrive at the crime scene.

But, honestly and harshly, that’s all you’ll ever be. There is no higher position for you in his police station.

Don’t let him in.

He is not calling because he’s taking you seriously this time. He’s not calling because he knows you’re worthy. He’s not calling because he wants you to get back together.

Vi chiama perché ha bisogno di voi come un parassita ha bisogno di un'altra vita di cui nutrirsi. Ha bisogno che vi prendiate cura di lui, che lo amiate e che vi occupiate di lui. Ha bisogno del vostro amore, della vostra generosità e dei vostri occhi caldi.

He needs to not be alone now when everybody else has left him. He’s calling because he’s drunk and he’s alone. It’s the same story all over again.

You shouldn’t be flattered by the guy who calls you only when he’s drunk. No, it doesn’t mean he loves you.

It means he just needs you, and you’re the only person he knows who will pick up the phone.

Instead, you should be flattered with a grown-ass man who’s not afraid to call you when he’s sober, treat you right, and darvi l'amore che meritate.

You’re constantly preventing yourself from getting over him.

Ogni volta che chiama, il vostro cuore ha un sussulto. Ogni volta che vedete il suo nome sullo schermo, vi viene voglia di urlare di gioia.

He doesn’t deserve it. Remember how many nights you have spent dry-heaving out of desire for him?

Quante volte vi siete sdraiati sul pavimento desiderando che il dolore fosse sparito e che non l'aveste mai incontrato? Quante volte avete voluto cancellarlo dalla vostra memoria?

Eppure, basta una sua telefonata per farvi dimenticare tutto il dolore e tutte le lacrime di rimpianto che avete lasciato cadere per lui.

Qualcuno deve dirvi che la pratica rende perfetti.

Potrebbe uccidervi ora se non raccogliete, ma in seguito sarà solo un nome a caso sullo schermo.

I promise he won’t know you wanted and waited for him to call. He won’t know how much you miss him. Nobody will ever tell him how much you’re hurting.

But he’ll think you’re doing just fine without him and that there is no place for him in your life. Eventually, it will be so. He doesn’t need to know it’s different now.

Dopo, he’ll realize what has he lost. He’ll be aware that he treated you the way nobody should ever be treated and he’ll regret all the times he ignored you, manipulated you, and made you feel bad about yourself.

He’ll keep calling the only person who loved him for who he was, but you’ll just let it ring.

Because, sooner or later, there will be somebody who’ll treat you better than him.

There will be somebody who’ll give you the love you deserve—and it’s not him.

He doesn’t deserve to hear your voice.
