Young love... so painful
14 March, 2002
I met michael when I was 20. We were at a club in Adelaide Australia and this stranger walked up to me on the dance floor, looked into my eyes and told me I was stunning. We danced and kissed all night long. From that moment, we were together all the time. We moved in together about 4 months later while I finished my uni degree and he worked at a bakery. It was after about 8 months that I realised Michael had a reasonably severe problem with marijuana. He consistantly used it everyday to block out issues. He came from a foster family and I honestly believe we were too intimate too quickly. He always said I was too good for him. If only he knew that I loved him unconditionally with all my heart.
After 11 months, he met a girl at his work who like him, came from a similar background and had issues with dope. He ended up leaving me for her. I was absolutely devastated. This was my first relationship and I thought he was my soul mate. I will never forget the bitterness or hurt that I felt when I caught him out.
Throughout the whole process, I have become a much stronger person. I often see him and his girlfriend as he moved in with her 20 houses down the street the day we broke up.
Its make me realise that you really never know someone if they wont let you.
