I'm sick and tired of this. I'm starting to feel like I should just cut you off. I wanna leave but it's like my mind is in the mental state of a battered woman. If I say goodbye am I walking away from a good person? or am I just holding on to a possibility of what If's? You think it's OK for you to set me straight and not expect me to do the same to you?  Ha!! You're a real  comedian if you think that. I had a dream last night. I think it was a sign. This prophetess saw you. She asked who you were. " Just a friend."  I say.  "You need not associate with him."  She says. Why, I know not? But now I'm starting to see. The longer I stay in this friendship  the more I damage myself. This is the type stuff girls with daddy issues go through. Quite frankly, I'm not one of them. So I'll stop acting like it. My father taught me that no matter what anyone thought , I was special. He instilled in me self-respect, self- pride, and that God would always be there for me and I'll be damned if I let some boy tear down any part of that!!! I don't know if I'm more frustrated at myself or you for letting this go on for so long, but I'm learning.  Self-respect and Self-Pride doesn't come with soft skin baby. No, it's tough!!
I hope you have a nice life, Chocolate, and that you learn from your mistakes.

                 Goodbye!!!
