I Picked Stability Instead Of Our Love

I made the decision for Kobby because of the security he brings, even though I loved you. I wish you the best in finding a person who appreciates your heart as I did.

My dearest,

First and foremost, thank you for every single moment of joy that you have given me. Your full commitment to our love was so evident, and I really liked your attempts and the glow of happiness in your eyes every day we were together. Sadly, uniqueness is not enough to support us; we need more for both of us.

Being the youngest among the siblings, I find myself in a difficult situation where I have to look after our sick brother and at the same time, help the rest of my siblings. It is tough for me to admit this but I cannot depend only on your love to survive. That is why I chose to be with Kobby. He is a good guy and I hope in the future I will have feelings for him too. For now he is meeting my needs, which also means I can send money to my mom and support my siblings.

Please do not evaluate my actions for I believe that possibly you too would have been in the same dilemma and would have made the same choice. Please do not tell others that I am the bad one in this scenario; on the contrary, try to recall the nice moments we all shared and honor my reputation. I did what was necessary for me to live.

Kobby is not bad, on the contrary, it is not his fault I have chosen him over you, neither is it his fault that he is able to take care of me while you are not. You love a lot, and I respect you for that. Kobby is my source of power until then. Therefore, please be nice to the ladies in your life; I am not going to be the one for you. You will meet someone even better, someone who gets your need for love and who can give it to you.

Gradually, you will again fall in love, and your lovely spirit will bring bliss and warmth to a family and home. Let your future be a greater source of joy to you than our past is a source of sorrow. Also, don't forget me when you pray; I'm not here to oppose you; I'm just a woman who was at one time your acquaintance. This farewell will not determine your fate. I would even say that it might not even be included in your list of fond memories.

Life works like that; we evolve and make memories today so that we can have even better ones tomorrow. If you are to give your next partner even half of the love you shared with me, she will be fortunate and will regard you as the best thing that ever happened to her. I dare you to accept this challenge.

Kobby just texted me; he is visiting this weekend, and I will be occupied. If you want, we may have a get-together where you'll be able to tell me what's bothering you. You can let it all out, even if it means accusing me or just blowing off steam. It is a good chance for us to have an open communication where no one gets hurt or resentful, since we have already been through a lot in the last two years.

Hit me up when you see this.
