There is a deep sadness in realizing that you were loving someone who was never truly loving you back. They enjoyed your presence, your loyalty, your body, your comfort, but they never carried your heart with the same care you carried theirs. You feel foolish for not seeing it sooner, yet love has a way of blinding us to imbalance. Be gentle with yourself for believing in potential. It is not naïve to hope; it is simply human.
