My “friends” always end up falling for the same guys I do, and they always choose my friend over me. But since they always choose them over me, I like to break the relationship from the inside. My friends trust me with their secrets and I obviously know they person they are with, so I feed them terrible things that they say about each other. So over time I destroy the relationship from the inside and make them break up and resent each other. Basically I break up my friends relationships from the inside and ruin both of their reputations, but they never would suspect me because I’m their friend. I also am a huge gossip. Everyone trusts me with their secrets, but I go around and spill them all. And not some secret like oh she was so mean, secrets like she fucked that girls boyfriend and she got pregnant. have no resentment because it can never be traced back to me. I don’t know if I should regret telling everyone each other’s secrets, but I never feel guilty.

I fell in love with a guy for 5 years of my life. No matter how much time we were away from each other I couldn’t forget him or move on from him. 2 years ago I started to date someone else and had stoped talking to the other guy who we will call Jacob. For so long I thought that I had stoped loving Jacob yet not once did he leave my mind. He was always in my heart and was such an important person. Many people ask why I didn’t just stay with him. The truth is that he never told me how he truly felt. He never spoke his mind to me. He was always quiet and refused to tell me how he felt about me. In a way I know he loved me too. I just don’t think he wanted to be an open person because he was never open with anyone at all. We weren’t meant to be and this past summer I left my relationship to try and be with Jacob but he was hurting me by staying silent and not telling me if he wanted to be with me. He said he did but he wasn’t open on his feelings and as much as I think he did love me I also think that he was never gonna fight for me or open up to me. I wish it was different. He was the only person I will ever have such a strong connection and bond with. After two months of trying to work something out with him again. It failed. I felt like he wanted the whole world but me. I love him I really do. I went back to the guy I was dating because I felt it was unfair to leave such a great guy for something that wasn’t gonna work out. However I truly love Jacob and yes I love my boyfriend too but Jacob will always be a piece of my life and soul. I don’t know how to let Jacob go. At nights I miss him a lot and I need to constantly remind myself that I need to let him go. I just wanna forget him and move in. I wish it was easy. I just wanna feel happiness and no longer pain from a love that was too good to be true.
