Just a second...to lose yourself

Hi, everyone!Let me tell you a little story that convinced me that, if you aren't careful, you can lose sense of what and who you are in just a moment...

A few weeks ago, it was a sunny and warm day...but, as I was walking to the park, I knew that, a few minutes later, my or his sky will be full of dark, grey, clouds and tears will start to pour.When I got there, he was waiting, silent, on the bench...that place full of sweet memories...where my eyes first saw his big brown ones.Now, they were somehow different when he looked at me...no spark in them, no happiness.I knew what was going to happen before he even spoke...because I was planning to do the talking...

We said "Hi!" one to each other and then I ended quickly, because I couldn't bare this anymore "I asked you to meet me here because I can no longer lie to you...I am very sad and I just don't feel this is right...so, Ethan, it's over!" He just said "Ok" and we both walked away...

When I got home I was feeling pretty well...because I did what I wanted to do...but then it all started...in my room I saw all the pictures of us, how much fun we had together and how we cared one about the other.Then I set eyes on all the pretty presents and gifts he had given me...all his affection...all his love for me...was still there somehow...but he wasn't!

I started wondering if I did the right thing. And doubts started gathering and growing in my heart.Then I began wandering around and thinking "Was I right?I must have been right!I couldn't have done this if it hadn't been for the best!For my sake!For ME!" But who was I fooling?Certainly not myself!I fell into deep depresion:I cryed and cryed and I screamed because it hurt me very bad.I had hurt myself very bad!Then I grabed my phone and called him.Nothing.It was OVER for good...and then I just stood on the floor feeling someone else.

Now I am better.Weeks have passed and I haven't seen him but I still wonder if it could have been different, better...

Was she right?

Hi, everyone!Today, I have a big question in my mind and you have to help me...do you think the girl in the story was right when she ended her relationship?What do you think she could have done better?If you agree or disagree with what she did write your opinion here!What would you do now?

Positions:

She did the best! (0)
She shouldn't have done this! (1)
If I were her I would... (3)

  • If I were her I would...

    If I were her, I would try to understand what's really going on, what he feels and, most important, what I really feel about him. If I found something wrong, I would speak to him and try to redress the situation.

  • If I were her I would...

    If I were her, I wouldn't broke up with him. I mean he has a great name :) and what could he do so bad.I would have talk to him about the things that brought us there and I am sure that we could fix them.

  • If I were her I would...

    If I were her I wouldn't have act like this in the first place but let's say I had...What would I do to fix this? Well, I think that, after calming down, I would let a couple off days pass and then I would talk to Ethan and see how I will feel...and how he will. Then, if I would realise that I had done a horrible mistake I would ask him if he thinks there is any chance things could be like they used to...Otherwise I would just try to be good friends with him:D

  • She shouldn't have done this!

    I think that she could have talked to him because you all see how she suffers now...I belive that she should have talked to Ethan first, not just cut him off like that! I mean, what harm would that have done to her?

Why did the girl in the story...?

As you all can see, I am the one who wrote the story above...
If you want to understand better why the character acted the way she did or what feelings maked her so miserable, please, aks! This project has as a goal the understanding of our emotions and I will gladly clarify all of your blanks:)


  • Question:

    Why did Ethan just said "ok". Wasn't he sad or he had no more feelings for the girl?

    • Answer:

      Well, that's a very good question.
      Firstly, I thought it would be more dramatically if he had no reaction in front of his girlfriend, because like that, she had more and more doubts. And, secondly, of course Ethan had feelings for her, but they were both uncertain of their relationship, so I guess he just didn't want to make her suffer more by showing her that he suffered too. So, he just probably couldn't stand there and see how they were falling apart and he wanted this to end quickly, too. Anyway, it's not something settled, because I didn't justify his reactions in the story. So, every and each of you is free to belive what you want! :)
