Day 71

Last night I had a mental breakdown. I kept thinking back all the good memories this year, and it traced back to him. We don't talk anymore. Like the old times. And after wallowing and soaking my face with tears, I realized, I am such a micro portion of his life. I stalked his instagram like a textbook, I occasionally do that. It makes me feel more insecure, because he got a lot of going on for himself. And the pictures he likes of girls, they look so perfect, with their bodies and with their fancy backgrounds. And here I am. Such a mess.

I know perfect is an illusion. And I know, I have said, we will meet again after lock down but I am not so sure anymore. The idea of us is fading. He probably sees us as some fling that has flung by now. And he probably will not miss me. Because this is normal for him. He has done it before. And he will do it again, with someone else. Or he will find someone to be in a serious relationship with. And that's just not with me.

You know, realizing this, has pained me more than all the other subordinating facts. When I try distracting my mind with other guys on my DM, he is still sneaking up in my mind with all the moments I had with him. Some were great and some were super hurtful to my ego. I am so insecure about my body and he had many times, made it sure I knew I am not beautiful or sexy. I feel like I am not enough. Before him, I knew I was enough to be loved, adored, cherished. Now I am not so sure.

My logical self, screams of letting him go. And I have let him go, on paper, I have. I don't demand him calling me anymore. I don't tell him I need you anymore. I don't text when he is online. But I haven't let him go truly because, under the brave face I put on, I am still waiting on him. To call me. To text. And probably after the lock down, I would expect to meet him again. And who knows. He would probably say he is busy or something and I don't know if I am ready to take rejection from him. To actually make up my mind, he is gone. He is never going to be the special someone. He is never going to be his old self again, who was trying hard to make an impression. He figured me out. He doesn't want me anymore.

I will be okay. I just need to stop holding on to things. These are not going to be my last good memories with a man. Someday, someone will come and sweep me off my feet. And  I don't have to worry about being resented the next day or any day.

You know what they say- Love should be easy as breathing. You should feel great, most part of it.
I am waiting for such love. I am waiting for such man.

I will be okay. I just need more time for accepting and forgiving and forgetting.

"Because nothing makes me happier and nothing makes me sadder than you.”

“If I had a camera," I said, "I'd take a picture of you every day. That way I'd remember how you looked every single day of your life." "I look exactly the same." "No, you don't. You're changing all the time. Every day a tiny bit. If I could, I'd keep a record of it all." "If you're so smart, how did I change today?" "You got a fraction of a millimeter taller, for one thing. Your hair grew a fraction of a millimeter longer. And your breasts grew a fraction of a—" "They did not!" "Yes, they did." "Did NOT." "Did too." "What else, you big pig?" "You got a little happier and also a little sadder." "Meaning they cancel out each other, leaving me exactly the same." "Not at all. The fact that you got a little happier today doesn't change the fact that you also become a little sadder. Every day you become a little more of both, which me...

 I am in luteal phase and everything my husband doing is irritating me.  It is all scientific I know but still everything is so annoying and I just wanted pizza. He ordered biryani.  I wanted to go on a date on valentines day. He brought me flowers, which was sweet but he forgot to book the restaurant and we ended up going costco instead. I just feel like I am wasting my best years on him. Is it normal to feel like that. We are almost 2 years into our married life and I already miss our initial chemistry. I feel like we are being like an old married couple. It shouldn't feel like that, right? I mean, it is still new; we aren't that old yet.  I feel so bored honestly, and disappointed.  Again, this could be because of my luteal phase.  I am sad too.  I wish, he made a little more effort to make me feel special. Make me feel deserving. I wish I didn't dress up to do our groceries on Valentines day. 

opposite sides of a coin

Hi B,  I've been sort of busy with the training for the job and have another interview coming tomorrow. I am torn between staying with the current job and switching or keeping both as part times. I don't know, I guess I will have a decision made if the interview goes well. I have been traveling far for the current one and every time I get on the bus or the the train I feel depression kicking in full force. Suddenly I remember home, the comfort of being around my loved ones, the easy life I once had back in Bangladesh. Certainly, there are things that weren't easy but I guess it felt easy because I was more used to it. Transport was rickshaw and didn't even think twice before booking an uber because I always had some money with me. Now I have literally 200 dollars to go by and I have to think twice to even buy a cup of coffee or a piece of bread. I guess with time, I will be able to save up some money. I am glad at least I got to start working. It is still very overwhelm...
