But I had loved him. A part of me still did. Maybe more than a part of me, because I'm a complete moron.
I'm not really sure why. But... do you stop loving someone just because they betray you? I don't think so. That's what makes the betrayal hurt so much - pain, frustration, anger... and I still loved her. I still do.
you can't deny they ever happened. You can't deny you ever loved them, love them still, even if loving them causes you pain
That's the thing about letting old lovers go. You don't stop loving some of them. There are a couple you love no less than you ever did. Not to mention namesbut I'm still in love with a couple. You're not going to try and make it work again, but if they needed you, you'd drop everything.
I think every girl has that a guy she has trouble letting go of.
You love somebody, and then you don't love them anymore. But if you really love somebody, you always love them, don't you? Isn't there always some small part of you that reads their horoscope in the paper everyday?
I began to feel that all the people I'd ever known who had died or left me had not in fact gone away, but continued to live on inside me just as this man's wife lived on inside him.
It's hard to stop loving someone on cue, especially when he's still so kind and loving toward you.
The love I have for my ex-girlfriends will always be there, so I think that's true love.
