Day 7 - Your Ex

(I'm not writing this to one particular person. I'll write a few things for a few major players in my romantic life and leave them general. Some things aren't worth the fight or energy. Maybe someday)

I miss you. Not in the "I wish we could get back together" way, but you were so much fun, and despite our differences we always had good times. I loved you so much. I'm sorry we couldn't have a better sense of closure.

I was wrong. Blame my youth and insecurities, but I made the wrong decision. You were a great guy and we maybe could have been friends if it weren't for my mistake.

We always had an expiration date. I never knew when that date would come, but it was fun while it lasted.

Thank you for showing me who you really were, so that I could learn to appreciate something good later on down the line. If it weren't for you, I'd never have come so far and made my life what is it today.

Puppy love - that's what it was. But at the time, it seemed so much more. I still see your face when I listen to "Without You" by Motley Crue.

So maybe we were never boyfriend/girlfriend, but you were something special. I treasured your friendship and I still think about the day you told me you thought you were wrong about me. You said it 10 years too late. I miss you all the time.

I remember you telling me that you would just follow me to whatever college I ended up going to and me being freaked out over the thought of you just tagging along for my ride. You weren't a bad guy, but I wasn't looking to be followed. I wanted you to worry about your own future. I hope you figured it out eventually.
