Life’s tough moments are like teachers, and I learned a big lesson the hard way. Thinking I was in love, I realized I was actually fooling myself by depending too much on my partner, a trap many girls, like me, often fall into. During our communication break, it hit me – I had let go of who I really was.
My day started to revolve around the emojis he used in his morning texts, or if he didn’t text at all. I got so caught up that I forgot about my goals, dreams, and the things I loved doing. Even though he made me really happy, I got hooked on that happiness. As time passed, I got scared of losing him, and that fear took over. Small things made me feel insecure. I was only happy when he was around, and the thought of him not being there scared me. In my struggle to hold on to him, I ended up losing not just myself but, in the end, him too. Even though it was a temporary communication break but this is how tough times taught me the real cost of losing who you are in the name of love.
