Dear Diary,

I am writing this with tears streaming down my face.

I just got home from the coffee date with Aiden. I was hoping it would've went better but I guess we got the mutual ending we should've gotten. I told him to meet me at Tim Hortons at 10:00am. And he came. We talked about our futures and our plans. Its unfortunate that I won't be apart of it.

Aiden told me that once he moves away from our hometown, he will be losing all contact with people, myself included. There would be times where we had silences and I felt like most of the time he wouldn't even look at me. He'd be looking out the window. I brought up the necklace he gave me and the bracelet I gave him. He told me that he wears it occasionally. At one point, he started talking about how if he ever got a wife in the future and it made me wish it was me.

Roughly 45 minutes later, he said he had to go to pick up his sister at school. I told him that I would walk him to his car. As we were walking out to his car, I thanked him for coming out to chat with me. He told me that it was a nice way of saying goodbye. I asked for a "quick hug". He hugged me and we stayed in each others embrace for probably 30 or more seconds.

As we were hugging, I said to him, "As much as I don't want this to be a goodbye, I just want to thank you for everything". Then he replied and said, "You as well".

I cried once I got back to my car and haven't stopped until probably 1:00pm. So at least 2-3 hours of crying non-stop.

I guess we were never meant to be. . .
