Too Good at Goodbyes

I want to thank you today. It's because of you that I'm not afraid. Not afraid to cut people out of my life. Not afraid to say goodbye when necessary. Yes I miss people, but I don't break when they leave. I have learned how to not get attached to someone so much that you can't stay away a single day. Not to do so much for anyone that you end up hurting yourself.

You made me see so many places. I traveled hours just to see you for minutes. Money didn't matter to me in front of my love. Yet all you did was to move on so quickly and so easily. It was so easy for you to play all this time. I knew all of this, at each and every moment, at each step you took away from me. But I had blind trust, it was optimistic bias that make me stand so long.

Now the thing is.. Did I stop trusting people? Did I distance myself from everyone. Did I stop making efforts to keep loved ones happy fearing that I would get nothing in return. They say it right, if you get your heart broken you are on the edge of a cliff. You either fly high or you fall down.

So today I was in college and ran out of money. A friend called me and asked to get something to eat. So I got something for him without letting him know that even I was starving. Yeah, so the answer is yes. I can still do this for people. Stay up late to hear what has given them a hard time.Make them feel better.

The difference is, you taught me not to expect anything in return from anyone. I cross limits for people. I can still travel for hours to meet someone. Still trust people. But I don't break anymore when people leave. I live carefree and have no hard feelings left for you. So I'll treat you with a smile if we ever meet accidentally. Just a thank you post because, my world revolved around you, but now I'm the center.
