I had done this before, so many times before. This time it was different, he walked out on my and I wanted him back … as far as I knew, there was no competition, but you never know!
It was a really bad break-up, we had even become quite violent – I remember smashing his cell phone in the wall because it had just been ringing and also most in the wink of an eye, I flipped – in the air it went, falling onto the floor in pieces.
I saw his fist coming and decided I could not wait around to find out where it would land – in a rush I was in my car and off to my girlfriend’s apartment.
As I sat on her sofa, explaining to her what had happened, it occurred to be that I did in fact want him back. As she began to speak, more and more what she said made sense. I couldn’t get him back if I couldn’t admit that I too had said some horrible things, I had to take a couple steps down and eat some “humble pie” to capture his love again.
He said some really awful things to me – things that truly hurt and I wasn’t sure I wanted to forgive him – “a girl has to have some pride” I heard myself saying.
I spent the night at my girlfriend and got up quite early the next morning, ready for the magic of making up. Don’t know why, by for some reason, making up is always so very magical, and especially so since we had never quarreled like that before.
As I drove home, I tuned into a station which was playing all this soul gripping love music – I started to feel really hurt because of the stuff I had said and done to him – “how can I go back?” I was asking. This wasn’t going to be easy.
That’s my experience, yours may have been a lot worst and a couple more friends, had some really bad ones. Here’s a great eBook that will teach you more about the magic of making up, go have a look.
