I have not written anything because I was not in a good place to write much. I was stunned, shocked, hurt, angry, all kinds of emotions I was processing.
A few days ago, I saw with clarity something that I haven't seen in me nor in my life, in the last few months. Hope.
I have an ex-boyfriend whose name is M. He's hot! He's so buff and handsome and he is very sweet to me, calls me beautiful and that still makes me feel so good inside. So beautiful. His presence in my life gives me so much hope in men. I don't, for one minute, believe that all men are the same as my recent ex-boyfriend, such as callous and a piece of $#%^. That's what he is whether he believes it or not. He's very low and he doesn't deserve me. That too, is the truth. I believe all people, whether they're men or women, make choices and those choices reflect on them. Mike isn't perfect and we are not together, but he is a reminder to me of men like him existing. One man shouldn't color my view of all men, and it doesn't anymore. It takes a lot for me to lose hope in men, in humanity, but my ex-boyfriend did do that to me. 2 months later with having a good man in my life, I see the truth, that there exists such beauty in the heart of other men. Men such as M. That is my newfound hope. I love the guy and I never want to lose him from my life. In doing that, I choose to remain friends. Because he is a sweetheart who is currently not available and I don't plan for anymore than friendship between us.
I am at peace finding the truth in my life, and I have hope in my love life once again. I also find a purpose for me and my future, which is to wait for the right man who can love me like I deserve. <3
