Dear Rocco,
Today I couldn't take it anymore. I locked myself in the bathroom at work and cried. I usually don't like to cry in a public places or in front of people but I couldn't keep it in any longer. This is all getting too much to deal with.
I didn't expect to still be feeling the same way (or close to) that night from the fight, but it's like everything I say, every interaction between us now, something is lingering over top. Something we both want to avoid actually talking about but subconsciously know is there. I hate this feeling. It feels like he's done, and normally I would be able I tell myself it's all in my head, but this time it feels like it's for real.
I hear people around me talking about the wonderful feeling of love, and I want to feel that way too, I mean don't I deserve to, after everything I've been through?
His words are still so present in my mind, it scares me to think I haven't gotten over it yet. What does it mean? What about our future?
