All these years.
After settling the score with my first love/heartbreak a couple months ago, I have noticed how much better I am at facing my emotions and voicing my needs and not just settling for the sake of settling.
I'm glad I got a chance to see him again and forgive him and look him in the eye and hug him with not an ounce of animosity. It seems silly to have waited this long, but I don't think I was ready for it until now.
And he reminded me of what a relationship shouldn't be. Exactly what I was in. It was like he was my guardian angel. Showing up right when I needed him to turn the light on to my situation. I'm seriously kind of amazed. And then he was gone, just like that. We made our peace. I'd like to continue corresponding, but if it doens't work that way, I am pleased just knowing our slates are clean with each other.
And I'll rise. A phoenix from the flame!!
