A while
back I told someone I really look up to that a boy just broke things off with
me. Tears were beginning to swell in my eyes and they rationally replied, “Good!
He did you a favor.” With anger brimming at the thought of this person’s lack
of consideration for my pain I gave a halfhearted smile and turned to his wife
to finish the rest of the story. She was much more consoling… Which at the
moment was what my heart needed. But in the weeks that followed I realized the
value in what was initially said to me, “Good! He did you a favor.” It was
definitely not what I wanted to hear. In those initial moments of this “break-up”
I thought I would have done anything to be with that person, but now I realize
that no one wants to convince someone to date them—that’s a decision everyone
gets to make for themselves. And if someone decides you weren't what they
wanted, in the end, they never could have been enough for you either. Maybe
they just figured it out first.

Remember women fall in love and get married…
