There were a lot of things in my life I regret but taking that walk that night wasn’t one of them.
I was tired. I was ready. I was stuck in an endless loop with no way to escape.
After the shit of the past years, I could waste away in this room and be happy to do so.
But I wasn’t alone, and her… she didn’t deserve this terror. She didn’t deserve this incompetency.
Me- I spent my life knowing this day might come, and I was ready.

All the times I’d let other people hijack my life came back to haunt me in the most horrible way.
Somehow, by chance, I ended up in a box with a man at the time when I needed it most.
A relationship 8 years too long. A job that went nowhere. A mom more concerned with herself than me or my happiness.
I was never anyone’s number 1 until waking up in that room. For 7 days, I experienced a closeness that was awesome to behold.
Until it all slipped from my grasp- in a single sentence, that closeness became distance so unbearable that it nearly suffocated me.
Nearly.
