"Sometimes I find myself sittin' back and
reminiscing especially when I have to watch other people kissin..."
There would,
still, be those unintentional moments of reminiscing and missing him. I would
just smile and think about that walk in the park and our conversation which,
seemingly, trying to imitate Jesse and Celine. I am a big fan of the movie...
And us, doing just that, one cold January night is one of the most romantic
moments I can imagine that has happened to me this year. I remember how he was
the last guy I went out with before I cut my hair real short and now I'm trying
to grow it back again... to that hair he loved so much and I cut just because I
want to move on to a new phase in my life and forget those special and romantic
moments we have shared together.

"I'd tell you sad stories about my childhood.
I don't why I trusted you but I knew that I could"
He wanted to
know me - to understand me. And so I opened up and told him my story. My story
of what made me the strong woman I am today that may make him love me more or,
eventually, dislike me. I am not really proud of what I've gone through but, at
the same time, I know that I shouldn't just deny and forget about it. My past
made me realize a lot of things and made me appreciate life better.
I am over
him. That is a fact. The moments that we have shared together are part of my past
that I can never bring back but I appreciate. No one can replace him in my life
because I wouldn't want him replaced... I wouldn't want any of the men I've
been in a relationship with or have gone out with replaced... I want the next
man I'd give my heart to, to be someone unique as well... Someone
irreplaceable; and we'll have our own special memories we can keep forever may
we end up or not end up together.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Rhea! ;)
Deletei used to cut my hair whenever i go over a heartbreak. trust me many times since high school so i can totally relate to your story. now that im 30 & still going over puffy heart issues, i feel like i dont want my hair to suffer the most so i just do a splurge whole body in a spa to reward myself. it works better :)
ReplyDeleteWell that, certainly, is a good alternative. Hehe :)
DeleteSuch an insightful post, Gel! I'm definitely with you on "I want the next man I'd give my heart to, to be someone unique as well." This is why I try my hardest not to compare the men I've been with and my past relationships. Each one is unique, and whether we had more good or bad memories together, the experiences, feelings and realizations are all precious. We won't be the person we are now without them. Anyway, loving your outfit here! Can't believe that dress is thrifted. Ganda, bagay na bagay with your shoes and even the location! ;)
ReplyDeleteTrue that, Sumi. I really treasure every good memories I've had with someone I've dated. They deserve to be remembered for the good things :)
DeleteI so love you dress! The pattern is so pretty and it looks very comfy too. :) - beautyediter.com

Thank you Jasmine :)
DeleteGrabe, nadepress ako. But you have a point. Whether we enjoyed or not, ended up together or not, we should never attempt to erase or replace people in our lives.
ReplyDeleteAmen to that :)
DeleteThanks Rose :)
