While I know the above quote is true, for some reason it is still so hard for me to come to grips with. The friendship part makes complete sense to me. But the true love.... it seems I fail again and again there.
If there's one thing that I believe is truly heartbreaking, it is being strung along by someone only to be dropped the moment someone better comes along. Because as you think back on the time you spent together, you realize that you were nothing but a place-holder. Little comments and remarks that at the time that seemed like no big deal, you realize what he actually meant. And wonder why you were so blind to it at the time. I have spent the past couple weeks feeling hurt, but also feeling foolish for feeling so hurt from something that didn't even last very long.
And if I have to go chasing after it, then there really is nothing real about it. Because it's all an illusion my heart wants to believe is real, even while my mind is telling me the opposite. So here's to moving on, seeing my worth, and not losing the faith that perhaps, maybe somewhere out there is my soulmate.
