Borrowed this from a friend, I wish I could follow it and hope that soon I can! Inspiration to all.
Here's a *toast* to all those girls who used to be his number one. The ones
who waited ALL night for him to call, only to check the caller ID the next
morning and be disappointed. The ones who made it through that bitter break up,
dried your own tears, and moved on with your LIFE, only to have him walk
back in it months later like NOTHIN ever happened. Those of you who cried on the
first day you talked again because you knew exactly where this phone call
was going. The ones who listened to him say, I only want to be your friend, one
day, and the next, listened to him say how much he loves and misses you.
Here's to the ones that took him back, hoping that maybe this time, he was
different, HOPING that maybe people really do change. We listened to our friends
tell us that we were stupid for even thinking about giving him another chance.
We went through the great stage with NO fights all over again. We started
this out thinking it would be just friends, and ended up falling in love with
him again. We wanted nothing more in the world than to hear him tell us he
loved us too, that even though things were bad in the past, they would be
different this time. And when we finally heard it, it was like we were dreaming.
This is for us. Here's to the ones who believed everything he said, sat around
all over again waiting for a phone call that might come in a few hours, or a
few days. Here's for the tears cried and dried all over again. We wanted so
desperately to believe that he was really busy, he couldn't possibly call us
at that moment, or even that he fell asleep early. We trained ourselves to
believe the lies because we wanted to believe we had found the one for us. We
learned to SETTLE for someone who didn't treat us the way we should be
treated. Here's for the ones who did their hair and make up and put on their
prettiest earrings, only to hear him say that he couldn't see us today. The ones who
NEVER believed it when people told us there might be someone else. We just
couldn't believe that he could do this to us again. This is for those **great
girls**, who loved him more than words can say, and took him back NO matter
WHAT happened last time because they couldn't bear to look back on their lives
one day and wonder "what if".? Here's to the girls who couldn't cry to
their friends because of how stupid they felt. The ones who held it all in when
things came crumbling to pieces again.The ones that could just TELL that they
had made a mistake ever allowing him into their hearts, their beds, and their
dreams again.
Here's for the ones that FINALLY realized that he does not possibly feel the
same way, because he has not done for you what you'd do for him. So here's
for **us girls** who FINALLY realized that we DESERVE beTTer. This is for
those confusing days, when you miss him, and want nothing more than to hear his
voice, or feel his arms around your waist. Remember the times you cried, and
how long it
took you to even be able to look at another guy like that and promise you
will not put yourself through that again. When "your song" comes on the radio,
turn the station. When the day comes that he realizes what a mistake he made
and tries calling, turn your phone off. When he tries coming to your house,
don't answer the door. Think of the broken promises, and the lies, the
manipulation and the tears, the wasted moments and staying up all night wondering
where the hell he was. Think of how your heart used to ^JuMp^ when your phone
would vibrate in the middle of the night, and how it fell to your stomach when
you saw it wasn't him, and *realized* that once again, he hadn't called when
he said he was going to. You may think that you'll NEVER care about someone
like you did that guy that you always ran back to, but YOU WILL. It's gonna
hurt like hell, and it's going to need time to heal, but the point is, it will
heal.
