God 90 So I was in a relationship with this girl, who's 26, while I'm 21. She works as a personal instructor. She was loving and caring and we knew each other for longer than a year and I fell in love with her. However, after spending time with her, I noticed, she doesn't love herself. What I mean by that, is that she was engaging in self destructive activities, to cover up her sadness. A lot of people smoke, some of them drink and even do drugs (I used to do all of the mentioned), but I couldn't look at her downfall, my heart was legit breaking after one party we've attended together, so I left. Probably shouldn't have given up that easily, but it is what it is. Life goes on so I should let go, because her and I, it's a thing of the past. On a side note, today a girl who's a total beast and our craziness matches, out of blue invited me to go on a summer trip with her :') So there's my medicine.

Songbird 1 Dear God, did you try to change her mind? Even though it is not your duty to save her from herself, if you were in love with her I assume you did your best to try and persuade her to stop hurting herself and you indirectly. You said she was doing those things because of her sadness: did you know why she was sad, and if so, did you try to help her? I know you may not want to be responsible for someone else other than yourself, but maybe she could have changed with your help... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
