“TO SOMEONE WHO KNOWS EXACTLY WHO HE/SHE IS : Let me refresh your memory a bit. I was the one who listened to your problems. I was the one who took all of your crap. I was the one who actually cared about you. I was the one who stuck around when everyone told me to leave. I was the one who stood up for you. I was the one who loved you even when you gave me every reason not to. Lastly, I was the one who was there for you, when no one else was. I'm done trying , If you want me in your life , let me know . Have a nice life , I'm done trying to be in it . Bye”
