I love this post. It’s hasn’t been a year for me yet but I imagine this is how I’ll feel in a year.

This postcard and the comments in response to it really hit home. I feel for each and every one of you, I know how this goes…

I was with my exboyfriend for two-and-a-half years. He was my first real relationship, the only person I had ever really opened up to and trusted. Although we never had sex (because of moral and religious reasons), we shared everything else together, both each other’s first’s. And then, he ended it one day. His reasoning? That he had become someone he didnt want to be, and treated me horribly. We split up in order to “keep me from hating him in the end”. It hurt, but I still admired him for it. Even after splitting up and experiencing all of the hurt that I had gone through, I couldn’t bring myself to say or think one bad thing about him. I was devastated, seeing as every little thing had reminded me somehow of him. We promised to stay friends, although that quickly fell through and we stopped talking for a brief period of time. A month after the split, he used me for sex. We both had wanted it, but I had seen more in the situation than there really was. I was looking to get back together, he was not, and made that blantantly clear after the fact. I was more devastated than before, to the point where staying home in bed crying had become routine for me. We lost all contact after that… This was four months ago, and I am still not over it. I lost more than a boyfriend, but a best friend and a lifestyle. Life isn’t as enjoyable as when I was with him, and I sometimes think I am developing depression because of it. Although I put on a strong face on the outside, the inside crumbles to pieces every day. No one knows, but I still cry at night, secretly hoping that things with him and I will go back to how they were.

So heres to you, Brad. I love you. I always have, and I always will. Please think of me once in a while, because I’m always thinking of you.

He promised me everything, he promised me the world.
We talked about marriage, children and growing old together.
For three years he was my world, my everything.
Randomly one night he told me it was all a lie.
He didn’t love me and never did.
That night he walked out our apartment door and we never spoke again.
But if I could say anything to him it would be…

“Thank you. Thank you for making me a stronger person and because of that I still believe one day I’ll find “the one”. He will love me for me and he’ll feel like the luckiest man on earth.”

I hate all these comments about how hurt people still are after being broken up for so long. I hate them because I fear my husband wishes she would have said yes and still thinks about her (she was his first). He wanted to kill himself after they broke up so I know he had it bad for her. Everyone says how you never love again like you loved your first and that you still think about them. Since this is annoymous, is this true for those of you who are with someone else now? My husband was my first love so I wouldn’t know.

This is EXACTLY how I feel. Although oddly enough, I do find some comfort in knowing that someone actually is going through the same thing as me.

And oh yeah, also the picture was so obviously taken in the bathroom at her parents’ house.

Why did I have to be bored at work and stumble upon this? I hope you do move on and be happy in your life.

**If I’m wrong and this isn’t from the person I think it’s from then ignore these comments. I just had this “this isn’t gonna be good” feeling in my gut when I saw that handwriting and started reading what it said.**

I don’t want to sound conceited but I think I know who wrote this and I think it was written about me. I KNOW that handwriting and even the little heart drawn on the bottom right corner. She always wrote me little notes and love letters.

Thank you so much for writing this – it gave me the courage to respond. I’m in the exact situation (friends for 3 years dated for 9 months). I lost a great friend and the man I love. Everyone (including him) says he just wasn’t good enough for me. I know this isn’t the right time for us, if ever, but I’d give anything to have him back.
