I really miss the purity that I felt about my previous relationship, and how if anyone ever asked me if he loved me, I could always say he did, very much. In fact, I thought I had him wrapped around my finger and he’d do anything to ensure I was happy.
I’m afraid that I will now forever be bitter about letting anyone be that close to me now. I look at relationships in a completely different way now, but perhaps that just means I’m less naive. I’ve never thought of myself as naive.
On a side note, whenever I see happy, healthy relationships I always hope they’ll succeed and enjoy the things I can only imagine.
(This is what I get for spending a few hours on the phone with my ex talking about his new family life.)
