Confessions: To The Engineer I Had To Leave

To the engineer I had to leave, I was selfish… But I deserved better—you do too.


It was never easy to decide. Our life together was so comfortable, and it wasn’t an easy choice to make. Leaving you, us, all this, it was one of the scariest decisions I have ever made in my life.

I wasn’t sure if someone would love me the way you loved me. I wasn’t sure if anyone would look at me like the way you did. I was so unsure.

But still, it was the right decision to make. To leave you and move on.

For both our sakes.

I was selfish, but I deserved better—you do too.

I deserved better. I deserved to be loved as much as I love him. I deserve to be capable of looking him in the eye and know that I’m the only one for him.

You deserve better as well. You deserve someone who loves you back as much as you loved me. You deserve someone who wants you the way you wanted me.

Our love was wonderful, it truly was. But after a while, it has been a constant chore of fighting, and fixing—an unending cycle of touch and go.

I know that you think we could still work it out, but staying would mean that I would put too much into a relationship that I won’t have anything left for me. I would be an empty shell.

We have so much to offer our lives, and in turn life has so much to offer us. I had to let you go.

I’m sorry.

It hurts right now. But, the future is bright and it will get better for the both of us.

They say forever doesn’t exist, and I still think otherwise. But for the both of us, this is where our love story is going to end. Soon, we will fall in love again, and you will find the one that will make your heart flutter than it ever has.

When that time comes, you will look back and realize that this decision was right, and you will have forgiven me.

Goodbye.
