Honestly I had decided not to post anything about the breakup on main stream social media because our personal matters didn't seem like something to talk about in a public forum... but I understand he is grieving and in a lot of pain because the truth is that I did break up with him... My reality seems to be much different than what he sees, feels and believes but I cannot dictate his truth. My truth is that the relationship wasn't the most uplifting or positive space for me... I didn't leave him to pursue a career, I didn't use him, the relationship wasn't a "convenience" until it wasn't or anything like that. I was genuinely in love and then I genuinely wasn't after many things that don't need to be shared and personal reasons that are between me and him. The short of it, though, is that I don't need a reason to not want to be in a relationship anymore. If i am unhappy then I deserve to find that happiness and he deserves the truth from me as well and the opportunity to move on and find someone to be mutually happy with. I can't stop anyone from having their perspective or narrative... but I know that mine is just as valid and real and not borne of malice or anger or hate but of genuine desire for both of us to have the best lives we can. I will say, I saw a post of his recently stating that I made him sell his house or something and now he's homeless... he listed his house on the market and sold it and decided to move after we had already broken up, I didn't make him sell his house... so there is an incongruency with his narrative and the objective reality of what happened. Regardless I am not here to make any stink or cause drama... I just have been really sad to receive scathing messages from random people saying how terrible I am for what I did to him and wanted to state, at least in part, my narrative... All I want for him is to be able to move on and be happy in his life and try to find the same for myself. I wasn't happy in our relationship and I know that a functioning relationship takes two. We only posted the "social media" or "hallmark" moments on Instagram... so people don't see anything else. BuddyWorker and Huxley 2
