If He Wanted to, He Would’ve

You may take the time to get to know someone, and you just might fall for them. Sometimes, though, we don’t see the full picture. We don’t see how easily they’ll let us go after they say they love us….

If he wanted to, he would’ve spent time with you.

He sees his friends every weekend, it won’t kill him to spend one day with you.

If he wanted to, he would’ve asked you what was wrong when he knew you were down.

He asks, but then, he changes the subject because he doesn’t want to listen to you cry.

If he wanted to, he would’ve told his friends any other weekend but this one.

Instead, he made up an excuse only to get your hopes up and go do something else.

If he wanted to, he would’ve told them he had something else planned first.

But he didn’t, and now you’re hurt. Yet again, you’re going to tell everyone “It’s okay he said he’d make it up to me.”

If he wanted to, he would’ve taken the call another time when you were talking to him about something important

When you thought you had maybe an hour with him to yourself just to talk, he answers his phone and talks for ten minutes straight while you sit there and wonder when it’ll ever get better.

If he wanted to, he would’ve reassured you that you were the only girl for him

He makes you question if he even wants to be with you, and it shouldn’t be this way.

If he wanted to, he would’ve told you were beautiful once…just once…

You send him countless “selfies” and pictures, but he never acknowledges how you fixed your hair or dressed up just for him.

If he wanted to, he would’ve given up something that was controlling his life

He chose that habit over you, and it constantly takes up his time and he pushes you to the back burner.

If he wanted to, he would’ve gotten control of his problems

He wouldn’t let them control his life, and he wouldn’t let it come between the two of you.

If he wanted to, he would’ve told you “I love you” just one more time

He would’ve realized you were almost gone, and he would’ve made it known he still wanted you. He would have tried his hardest to make you stay and work through. He would have saved what was left and mend what was broken.

If he wanted to, he would’ve never let you go…….

But he did, and now he has to live his life thinking of what would’ve been.

I know you want to make excuses for him, but you need to realize that if he wanted you, he wouldn’t take you for granted. The best thing you can do is let it go. Sometimes, it is just better to let go because you finally realize he had the chance...he just didn't take it.
