(E/N): Soon-to-be/ex's name.

"(E/N), I was just wondering if there's something I did wrong? I don't even know.. I just feel like we haven't been talking the way we used to."
"No, babe. You're absolutely perfect. If there's something wrong, you'll be the first to know.. well.. I know I said that there was nothing, but when we flirt in public, I feel sorta uncomfortable with how our friends think, and you're a bit obsessed, but not in a bad way.."
"What do you mean?"
"I've had people come up to me and they always talk to me about you and give me the vibe that you're obsessed."
"I didn't know you were uncomfortable with us flirting. I thought you said you were okay with PDA.."
"I don't know, I'm sorry."
"No.. It's my fault. I would've just appreciated if you told me earlier instead of waiting until the last possible minute."
"Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. I love you so much."

You didn't know what was going on, but even before this conversation, you felt that the two of you were getting distant. You ended up crying because your overthinking mind couldn't handle the fact that this relationship may not last as long as you hoped it would. You both ended up talking more and you came up with some conditions that would hopefully mend your relationship for the best; communicating constantly, and the basics. You wanted to take things little by little. The following week, you decided to talk again because things still seemed tense.

"(E/N), can we talk?"
"Yeah, of course darling."
"I just wanted to say that before I say anything, I know we agreed to always be honest to each other about our feelings and anything that's bothering us."
"Mhm."
"I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like there's a lot of tension between us."
"Yeah- I actually feel the same way, but I don't know what's going on."
"Me neither, but I hope you know that I love you, and that I care. If there's something going on, I hope you'll tell me about it."
"Yeah, I promise."
"And I know after we talked about this last week, the tension between us started getting kind of bad.. Is there something going on? Are you losing feelings?"
"Although I do have a lot of shit to worry about, I still really care about you."
"Well.. um.. I just wanted to know that I'm sorry for making you feel that way last week."
"No, it's alright. I'm sorry I never told you earlier."
"Well, do you have any boundaries that you wanna put down, or anything you want me to know before we move on together?"
"I don't know. We can just figure it out as we go."
"Oh.. alright.. Are you feeling okay though? You still have feelings for me.. right?"
"Yeah, I'm okay."
"Just be honest. Are you losing feelings?"
"I feel like I might be. I'm sorry."
"Oh."
"I'm really sorry."
"Do you still wanna continue dating, or..?"
"I don't know."

They had been practically leading you on. For almost a week, they had been telling you that they loved you when they didn't. As soon as you were told that they no longer had feelings for you, you had so many emotion running through your mind.

Why did they never tell me?
Why did they wait until I asked?
What could've I done to make them lose feelings?
It's all my fault.
What happened to "being honest" with our feelings?
Is this really gonna work out?
Why were they not honest?
Why did they lie to me?
Is there something wrong with me?
Why did they lead me on?

You couldn't sleep at all that night. You kept thinking about whether or not you should continue this relationship. The next day, you had no school, so you finally made the decision yourself.

(E/N)

You:
Hey, (E/N), I've been thinking for a bit, and I think that maybe we should just stay friends... considering the fact that you no longer have feelings for me anymore.

(E/N):
I completely agree and I understand

You felt a huge wave of relief hit you as you ended things. You just hated the fact that they never seemed to care and that they were never honest with you about their feelings and what they wanted. As days went by, you slowly, but surely, got over your ex. You weren't completely over them, but you were definitely getting there. You had also had your eye on some guys, but wasn't looking for anything because you wanted to wait until you were completely over your ex.
