A Tribute to Life

So, for those of you who haven't heard, I am single, I am picking up my life, and I am changing. Now, I know my profile still has couple type things on it, but I'll get to it eventually, it's a little harder to change than Facebook. And for all of you who want to know what happened, I'm going to actually tell you. I think everyone needs to know the truth so that way people don't think I'm running away.

He cheated. Cory cheated. I forgave him for cheating but I just couldn't trust him. After almost seven months of trying to trust, I couldn't. I mean, yeah, he got some trust back after doing certain things, but he was nowhere near the amount of trust that should exist between a couple. Now, I'm not saying this to bad mouth him, I'm really not. I still want him to accomplish everything that he wants in his life and I hope so much that one day he'll be in a place where he can have a relationship that isn't so lost. But I also don't want people to think that he is the victim here. We both are. We both did things that hurt the other and it broke us. What caused me to want to do this was I was talking to a friend who actually knew him more than some of my other friends, and telling her about it made me feel better than telling anyone else, just because she knew him and she knew people who know him very well.

I think another reason why I'm feeling better about it is that we actually talked today. We tied up some loose ends that I needed to be done. It really helped me. I knew it would. With my last boyfriend, we didn't tie up loose ends until about 3 months later and it took me a lot more time to feel good about everything and I knew I didn't want that again. So I said what I needed to say, and he took it well, and he told me things that I needed to know, and I know it was true and from the heart. I know for a little bit, we will probably not ever really talk. But maybe in a few months to a year, we can be able to talk like we used to before we were in a relationship and be friends.

The reason why I'm not scared that talking again would lead to another relationship is because I'm leaving San Angelo. I'm going to move back home and hopefully attend UNT. I'm glad that I'm going to be going home and that I'm going to be close to everyone. My grandparents just moved down and my aunt and uncle will be coming down soon too, so a good portion of my family is going to be here. I feel that I will finally be able to be an aunt to all three of my nieces, and that is so important to me. And I feel that I will be able to get a better education elsewhere. Not that ASU is a bad school, but it's not the best for what I'm going for. ASU is actually a pretty awesome school with some amazingly cool people and the culture on campus is really diverse for the size town it is.

So yeah, I'm a little sad. No, a lot sad. For obvious reasons. I've lost my boyfriend and best friend and I'm moving away from this second family that I have that is so amazingly sweet. But I know that in the end, this is what I need and with this change, I will accomplish everything.
