Matt

I can't be more than friends with you

I remember how much I wanted to blog about him back then.
I remember writing a post but halfway through it, deleting it.
Not that I don't want him here. I just don't want to jinx it but it ended still.
If you've read this blog from the very beginning, you'll notice that most of the things I write about is either when I'm sad, angry, depressed or the like. I rarely blog whenever I'm happy. I don't know why. It just feels like my words are not enough to give justice to how happy I am/was. So, I find it easier to blog when it's all over.

It has been over between Matt and I... whatever it was.
I didn't mention anything about him on this blog before because I don't wanna jinx it.. but it ended anyway.
For reasonable reasons though.
He was awesome. He still is.
He was as clingy as me. He always finds a way to reassure me. He makes me feel good about myself.
We can talk all day with no dull moments or awkward silence.
It was all pretty awesome actually. It was like a fairy tale. I can't even remember if we ever fought.
It was all easy and non-toxic.

But, you know what they say, if it's too good to be true.. it probably isn't true.
It was the best while it lasted.
But sooner than later, reality came biting us in the ass.
From almost saying I love yous to I can't be more than friends with you.
I was mad and hurt because I was willing to risk it.
I was willing to make it work. Applying for an onshore opportunity at work to be able to move in the United States. To be closer.
I always thought that love knows no distance but thinking about everything that has happened now... maybe long distance relationships don't really work.

As I've said, I was mad but I, eventually, got over it and understood his point.
We haven't even met in person yet.
But how can you feel something so real for someone you haven't even seen in person?
The distance is big. It will never work out.
But why does my heart feel like I was prepared to take the risk? 
So, maybe, it was all for the best that it ended sooner.

That doesn't mean he just disappeared. He is still there for me. As a friend.
He never gets tired of listening to my drama, to my rants, and my random shit.
He's always there to cheer me up whenever I'm sad.
He cures my boredom. All the time. Lol
He's like my one snap away friend.
Thinking about it all, I am glad we didn't go pass through being friends.. because if we did, I don't know if we will still be talking until now.
And, I guess, everything really happens for a reason.
For the better.

Cause you're moving on and I'm not that strong to hold on any longer

It scares me how I don't miss you that much anymore.
I'm scared because I don't know if I don't or I just can't feel anything anymore.
But whatever it is, I'm glad.
I'm glad that I don't think about you like I used to. Maybe I'm starting to move on ha?

The more I "snoop" around, the more I realized that I don't wanna be a part of that fiasco. It's all too complicated, too toxic.

I don't miss you that much but it doesn't mean that I don't miss you at all. I still do.

And I never wanna say goodbye

No more wondering if you miss me like I miss you
Three words, eight letters... that's all it took to make my day.
Read that first thing in the morning and it made me feel better than yesterday.
I don't know why. It makes me feel like he still thinks of me the way I think about him.
But with those three words, I can feel that he feels the pain I'm feeling now.
The longing, the missing everything we used to be.

I have been trying to distract myself.
Diverting my attention by talking/entertaining other guys.
But they don't know me like you do
It feels different, but, I guess, I just have to get used to that.
Hearing someone else's laugh feels weird. It made me miss his' more.
Seeing someone else's text in the morning feels wrong. I always find myself scrolling through my notifications, looking for your name.

There's nothing else to do.
All we can do is miss each other. Nothing more, nothing less.

2:42 PM

Cause I still love you, this I must confess
I guess I still need you, I feel I have to tell you this again
Yes, I still want you, no, this wasn't in my plan
So if I interrupted anything, I promise I won't call you again

I was running late. I overslept. Opened my Instagram and saw he uploaded a new picture... with her.
I can't help but wonder if he sees my face or remembers me whenever he calls her 'baby'.
Yeah, he calls her baby too. Well, he used to call me that.
I sound so pathetic right now. I know.
I am writing this with an overflowing heart with emotions I don't even know how to describe.
I'm angry but I'm also happy. I'm sad but I'm also understanding.
I don't know which is which. I think I'm crazy.

I'm angry... at myself.
For saying he should just work it out with her for the baby.
For saying it's all okay and that I understand.
For saying we can still be friends as if it doesn't hurt.

I'm happy because having a kid is a blessing.
And because... I don't know. I'm just happy that he seems happy.

I'm sad for selfish reasons.
Because I miss him. I miss us.
I miss how we used to be.
I miss everything about him.
I'm sad for the plans we made.
For the things we said that I'll be forever wondering if he meant everything he said.

But I understand.
I truly understand that the situation... I am just in denial right now.
I understand that he has a responsibility now and that it should be his number one priority.
I understand.

It just hurts. I thought time heals but it feels like, every time I wake up, the pain is still there.
It doesn't seem to go away.
I can't help wish I was her but, hey, that's fine
