I was in love with a boy. A boy who didn't love me back. But he liked me enough to try out an exclusive arrangement with me. The one where we'd not entertain others, except each other. He wanted to see if he'd have feelings for me. But in the process, he lost whatever little he had. He didn't realise that I was more flawed than what he'd expected.

This is the story of me and that boy. The story that happened but proceeded not to happen like how I wanted it. A true beginning and a false ending. This story is my closure. A memory that I want to store in a book and never open forever.

What has life taught me? Never settle for a man who loves you less than you love him.

I could have made him love me because he once did, but I destroyed my chances because I was blind to the areas I needed to change. I brushed his issues with me under the rug. And I burnt whatever remaining affection was there.

There's no going back for me. I hope it's not the same for you.

Love from my broken heart.
S.H.
