I really thought he was my forever.
We met at the start of college. He was charming, said all the right things, made me feel like I was the most special girl on the planet. For a while, I believed in every good morning text, every “I’m lucky to have you,” every promise that felt like magic.
But magic doesn’t always last.
One day, the texts stopped feeling warm.
He became distant, cold — like a stranger wearing the face of someone I used to know.
And then he left. No explanation. Just silence.
I begged, cried, overthought every word I ever said. I blamed myself, hated how I looked, questioned if I was even enough.
But slowly, something shifted.
One night, after crying into my pillow again, I whispered to myself:
“This is not the end of me.”
I started journaling.
I signed up for a small photography course.
I stopped checking if he saw my stories.
I began walking in the evenings — no music, just silence and healing.
And you know what? I discovered something crazy…
I was never the broken one.
I was just someone who loved deeply… and got left behind by someone who didn’t know how to handle that kind of love.
Today, I’m not bitter.
I’m better.
He broke me… but that pain built a stronger, more beautiful version of me.
And if you’re reading this, in your own heartbreak — I hope you know…
You’re not broken.
You’re becoming.
