There are two sides to every story. I'm tired of being judged harshly by people who are not interested in listening to my side of the story.
My breakup with Devin just under two months ago has been extremely unpleasant and we both did things to hurt each other afterwards. We have talked about this and have come to the agreement that we still love each other very much, that we are still friends, and that we will respect each other's feelings from now on. I think this is a good thing.
There are some people out there who decided that, since I'm the one who did the breaking up, that I have no feelings for Devin or that if I do, tough shit on me. I broke up with him. My feelings are of no consequence.
There are other people who have taken sides and expressed their dislike of me to him, and their dislike of him to me. This does not help. Please stop.
Lastly, because of certain lies that I have been told and disrespect that has been shown to me, I have chosen to end some friendships with certain people. As an individual, I am allowed to be friends with who I wish. I'm not interested in being told that I am a bad person for disliking people who've hurt me, know they've hurt me, continue to hurt me, and justify their hurting of me. I'm not going into details, this is between them and I.
I'll say this again: Devin and I still care about each other very much. If we are willing to work together to stay friends, lovers, or partners; I would ask everyone to respect that.
Thank you.
