Lovers to Friends
“Two past lovers can remain friends,
it’s either they were never in love, or they still are…”
Trying to be friends with someone you dated is like trying to change the world alone. It’s difficult and probably not going to happen. You need support and guidance to help get you through, and yet no one understands what you are going through. I don’t know how people do it. You can’t be happy for them wondering why they couldn’t be happy with you, and you can’t be unhappy for them because you only want to see them happy. It is hard to act like an adult and look past the reason why it didn’t work. Deep down inside there is always that wonder… why? Why wasn’t I good enough for them? What did I do to drive them away?
When two people are friends first, then lovers, when it’s over, not only have they lost their lover, but their best friend. You lose the courtship, and the late night talks, the dinners, the companionship, the hugs, the kisses, the romance, you lose it all. You lose your soul and your state of mind, because the last person that had your heart always has it a little longer than the break-up process lasts. Your heart is never really the same…
