I drank last night unsurprisingly. I ended up writing about some things. I don’t know exactly what I said, I know it was mainly about Sweet Pea. This was what my drunk broken heart needed to get out last night. I feel like writing now but I am gong to hold off till tonight hopefully. I feel much of my stuff may get repeated but I need to get everything out in as many ways as possible while I work through all this…
My fiancé broke up with me. It has been 3 weeks and 4 days. I didn’t see it coming. Even now I am in shock. We promised we would always talk and work on things and never give up, even if I killed someone. It wasn’t even two weeks before he broke up with me that we went away for my birthday. He wrote such nice things in my card. He bought me amazing presents. He got me personalised wrapping paper. We had so much fun together and I was so happy. He always made me laugh. Yes we had problems, who doesn’t? I suffer from depression, he gets angry, I drink too much, he is selfish… there are more things but nothing I thought was a deal breaker. It was always things I thought we could work through and always be together.
My depression started to come back in the late summer. I stopped showering and dressing myself, I stopped cleaning and began to slowly drink more. I didn’t want to leave the house. I stopped talking as much. I was a little scared of him… not because I thought he would hit me, he just got annoyed and angry quite easily and that kinda shit scares me. It was awful. I would shake in fear. Writing it down makes it sound so much worse than what it was, or maybe that is me in denial. I would cower from him. I would be scared to talk to him. Was I being paranoid or was it real? Whatever it was, I still believed we could work on it.
I can’t say it was one thing that set my depression off, there were loads of things and sometimes it just fucking happens. I feel like I have to explain why I get depressed and I’m sick of it. Yes there were things but also maybe it just happened!!! Yes I got a little freaked when I moved in with Sweet Pea but that went pretty quickly. Yes I started uni which is a two hour train journey alone. Yes my dad and step mum disowned me. Yes I got sexually assaulted. Yes I made no friends and had no social life. But I also got engaged! I got engaged to my best friend. I didn’t react well to it but not because I didn’t want to. I had built it up in my head for years, how I want to get engaged. I always wanted it to be special and meaningful and romantic; not necessarily in a stereotypical way, but in a personal way. It was mine and SP’s anniversary at the end of August and a couple of days before, I gave him my present which was a scrap book of our first year together. I was embarrassed but he loved it and I loved that he loved it. He went upstairs and I washed up. Music was on, it was Simple Minds – Don’t You (Forget About Me). He said he had something for me. I closed my eyes and turned around like he asked. He put a necklace on me and as I looked I saw it was a necklace he gave to me for Valentines. I could see a ring was on it but wasn’t sure what it was as the chain was short. He took it off and I turned around to find him on one knee. I was silent for a while, tingles going up and down my body. I said yes. And the fist part of the song happened. I did it and it was all amazing. We sat for the rest of the night on the sofa just talking and being all happy and glowing. Then the day after I started to feel upset about it all. It wasn’t romantic. It was nothing. Or that is how I felt for a while and I felt bad about it. The ring didn’t fit, I wouldn’t get it for ages as it needed doing blah blah blah. I was a bitch. It was about 3 weeks later, we went to see friends. He proposed to me again, with the ring in front of them. We had agreed to keep our engagement to ourselves, at my doing. I had told him to do it again. That was the story we told me people. I was so happy yet felt so bad I had made such a horrible mess of it. Right now I don’t blame him for leaving me. He should have done it sooner.
I wish I could write everything down, in it’s proper order, but I can’t right now. Maybe one day I will be able to write all this down with a clear head instead of this horrible pain. I wish I could see it all clearly but I fucking can’t. I ruined the best thing to ever happen to me. I should say having my son is the best thing that ever happened to me. And it is, but in a different way. This was the love I have always wanted. The love I always needed. The love I always hoped for. I had someone I could be myself around, tell them my hopes and dreams and fears and all that bullshit. It was all the crap that is forced down your throat. But it was real, real life love which is so much better than films and songs. He was my person. Even through the depression I felt a weird happiness with him. I told him things that weren’t supposed to be told to the love of your life. I told him I wanted to fuck other people, that I thought about my ex and how I wanted to fuck him, how I would go for drives with him and hold his hand, how I would email him and talk to him instead of my love. I destroyed my love. I self destruct when things go well for me. I try to push away any happiness. I thought I was over all that shit but obviously not. I wish I could fucking explain my head. Sometimes I can but I never write it down or say it out loud. I just think it. I want to do the big romantic gesture that is done in films but I know it wouldn’t work. I want to do the boombox. I want to stand in the field waiting for him. I want to fill the house with flowers and candles. I want to do something that proves to him I am sorry and will win him back. I want to be able to tell him how much I love him but there are no words. No actions. I can’t force him to marry me and even that wouldn’t be a good enough action to show my love. I am a useless dick. He doesn’t want me.
Ok so, Sweet Pea is the most beautiful person I have ever known. He has this smile, it’s open mouthed and shows a bit of gum, crinkles his eyes up and they twinkle at me. His smile is full of love and life and always made my belly flop. His booming laugh. His jaw, squishy nose, perfect eyebrows, his thick long dark hair… His body wasn’t perfect, he had flaws, he was slim with grabbable fleshy parts, his skin was pale and pasty and had blemishes and I loved it, I loved running my hands all over his body, tracing his scars with my fingers, kissing his body and loving every inch of it. His imperfections made him even more perfect to me. He destroyed what I thought I wanted and gave me even more. He was kind, so kind, and caring, and loving, and funny, and smart, he used what I like to call proper words, not boring words, he was always making me laugh and laughing at what I said, he listened and talked, he repeated stories and I used to love picking on him but also loved listening to his tell me the same things, his hairy feet, his inability to grow facial hair, his gorgeous smell, the way he would sweat when we fucked, his arse, his dick of course… it was the perfect length and was thick and tasted amazing, his hands, his arms, his legs were wonderful, thick with the right amount of hair, his stomach, his huge tongue, his perfect lips, the way he kissed me, the way he loved my son… our son, he is so great with A and takes care of him and does the nursery run. I could keep going and I probably will….
So it’s been a couple of hours, I just watched a film and right now I want to fight. As in fight for my relationship. I know he said he doesn’t want to be with me, but I can’t just roll over and give up. I want to prove to him that I love him. Show him that we can work on things. That I can overcome my crap and be together. I want to stop fucking about, I want to stop talking or even thinking about other people and I want to wait for him. I don’t want to push him or be too in his face about it. I know I need to get stuff sorted before anything can happen. I know I risk losing him forever, either on his own or with someone else. But I will take that risk, because I know we are supposed to be together. I know I am supposed to spend my life with him and I will do whatever it takes. He is my Sweet Pea, my person, my love, my best friend. I am going to fucking fight for this. I am going to try my hardest, do my best at being the person I know I can be, the person I want to be, the person he deserves. He deserves the best, he deserves it all and I am going to be the one that gives it to him. I am going to keep to myself, no more fucking about, I will do counselling and get help for my drinking and get myself into a better place. I have to fix myself before I can win him back. I have to think of myself while thinking of him. I am going to win my best friend back. I love him more than words can say. I don’t need to cry, I need to work on myself. I don’t need to mope, I need to get better. I don’t need to worry or be jealous, I will win him over in time. I love him. I will always love him
