I, like many girls, have a bucket list of qualities I’m looking for in a partner to spend my life with. Over time, I’ve ticked and unticked some of these qualities, still searching for that special someone to grow old with. Although I feel a bit old for a fairytale romance, I haven’t lost hope. I still believe in giving love a chance.
I’m that girl who’s willing to kiss a thousand frogs before finding her prince charming. Each new relationship brings hope that I’ve finally found “the one.” My current relationship is no exception. The person I’m with doesn’t tick any of the boxes on my list, but somehow, he’s captured my heart. We’ve shared beautiful moments together, despite our vastly different backgrounds. He’s a rural boy, and I’m a city girl, but he makes me feel young and vibrant again.
I must admit, I’m crazy in love with him. However, our relationship took a drastic turn when I caught him cheating. He fed me lies, claiming he’d let go of the other relationship because he wanted only me. But the truth is, the other woman is still very much present in his life.
I’m done with him, but I’m finding it hard to let go. My attachment issues are breaking me. I’m angry with myself for ignoring the red flags and falling in love anyway. Why do I keep falling for the same type of guys? I need a change. I hope someday I’ll meet someone who truly loves and cherishes me.
Until then, I’ll keep believing in love and working on myself to recognize my worth and break free from toxic patterns.
