C,

When we split it felt like I'd never move forward. It felt like I'd never know how to do life without you. Turns out, I was right.

I'm dating again. But all it's doing is making me miss you more. I miss how you used to pep me up for dates, help me pick out my outfit, and then want to hear all the details after. It doesn't feel like dating without all of that. It's just not the same.

Not to mention, it's just making me miss us. Nothing is easy with these guys. Dating is work. It wasn't ever work with you. Was our relationship work? Yes. Every single day. But we weren't work. We were easy. The feelings were easy, being with you was easy. Falling for you was easy. The parts that weren't easy were all outside factors. But you and me? We made sense from the first day to the last. I'll never find that with anybody else.

I guess I want you to know that life is moving on here. I'm moving forward.... but that doesn't mean I miss you any less, or that it's gotten any easier being without you.

Still promising not to forget you,
Ro 🌸
