It wasn't my fault...

An Open Letter To The Guy Who Wasted My Time

It's happened to the best of us...

We've all had those almost relationships that leave us feeling unworthy of love. Unfortunately every girl feels it eventually, the heartbreak done by a guy that didn't feel the need to make it official "just yet." These type of situations always leave you feeling unwanted with a lot of unanswered questions.

What did I do wrong? What could I have done better? Why did you lead me on if we weren't going anywhere, and last, but not least, why didn't I see this coming?

You made me feel worthless. If there's one thing I know for sure, it's that you were good at making me feel unworthy of your time and effort. I was only good enough when you had no one else, and sadly, back then, that was good enough for me. I loved being your number one go to, and you knew it. I would pick you up whenever you needed me to because at least I was something in that moment. Unfortunately for me though it never lasted every long, sooner or later I was back to nothing all over again.

You got my hopes up. As soon as I mentioned something about getting tired waiting on you to make it official you'd find a way to make me stay. "Just a little longer," you'd say, but sadly that "little longer never came. It was like I was a puppet and you, the puppeteer. After a while you stopped considering the possibility of us ever becoming something more, and you know that almost as well as I do. At the time, I just didn't want to believe it.

You were a complete waste of my time. I guess the worst part of this is that I was falling for you, and you were never that sure about me. Everything you said, every future plan you made that I was apart of, were just empty promises. I'm lucky enough to know that now.

In all honesty, I've wanted to hate you for the longest time, but I could never bring myself to do it. Trust me I've tried. I have gone through every negative feeling you have ever given me, but I guess it's true when they say: the positive outweighs the negative because all I can do is thank you.

Thank you for showing me that I deserved so much more than you were willing to give. I'm a better person than I was when I was invested in our almost relationship, and for that I am extremely proud, I now know the difference between words and actions and how important it is to put your words into actions. I also know how I deserve to be treated and I've moved on, and I'm so happy to know you're happy as well. I guess what I'm trying to say is, thanks for wasting my time because, in the end it wasn't a waste, not even at all.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
