On a chilly, windy afternoon, our last kiss was on a sidewalk saying good bye. I just wanted to go home and let it all out. But, I had to work. You were perhaps the great love of my life. But, yes, if you can love someone more than me – it’s better you be moving on and leaving me behind.
You asked me why I’m not dating. It would not be fair to anyone else. Maybe I’ve been reaching for dangling strings – hoping beyond reason that you would come home. You really made it clear when you said you missed the flowers. You didn’t say you missed me giving you flowers or that you missed getting them from me….just that you missed the flowers.
I hope you can look back and say it was worth it.

I got your card last night. It made me uncomfortable, I don’t want anyone to love me that much. It left me speechless. We need to move on. I am not coming back to Vermont. I am looking for a new life, a new adventure. I have tried to be nice about it and you don’t get it. I don’t want to be mean. You came along at the wrong time. I look back at messages and blog entries and comments. I told you I did not want a relationship at that time. I told you I needed to be on my own. You allowed me to take advantage of you (and yes, I did). You let me use you (and yes, I did). It was a mistake to give you my new address. I don’t know what to do. I know that I need to stop dangling the strings….. I am afraid to hit submit.
