Our Love Story - VII (Keeping a Distance)

after our 2nd breakup, i wanted to stay away from him - both physically and emotionally. i would like to avoid flirting with him through texts, and eventually falling again. i wanted him to think and realize what he really wants. i wanted to give him his freedom and to give myself peace of mind. that way, he can womanize all he wanted and keep me off the hook.

but of course, i wanted to have a good exit. i didn't want him to think that i just vanished away with grudges against him. i wasn't being a hypocrite when i wanted to make him feel better by thinking that i was okay. really! yes i was hurt, but i had to move on, and hating him would not help me. honestly, i pitty him.

so a day after we broke up, i texted him to inform him that i would not be texting him back - that it would be the last. he could call me, but i would not text him back. i didn't want to spend another peso for him. i wanted to completely cut our communication so we both could move on with our lives.

he didn't want to lose me. he kept on texting me, but i fought the temptation of getting my phone and hitting the send button. it was difficult at first, but it got easier and easier everyday. may it helped that i didn't have cellphone load. haha!! until i could completely ignore his messages - without a second thought.

whew! now, that's one person lighter on my part.
