"I love him."

"He is destroying you."

The woman let her hand rest on the girl's cheek,caressing it.

"No,he loves me.He says that he loves me."

"He is showering you with toxic words and you take them all so willingly."

"He is not toxic,just unique."

"Unique?I didn't know unique people are manipulators,and use every word to their advantage to the point they make you be the problem of everything."

The girl lowered her head.

"But,when bad things happen,it is my fault.I make him unhappy which makes me unhappy.I worry about him.I want him happy."

The woman lifted up her chin,making eye contact.

"In a relationship,both parties are at fault.Yes,you did some fuck ups,but he did some as well,maybe major ones who haven't even notice."

The woman looked at her from head to toe,in a rather sad gaze.

"He helped you,yes,but you haven't even made a step into improving yourself,because he holds you back,shielding you from the reality.He is trying to make you his and only his.But let me tell you something;You are a free human being.Free.Nobody can take your freedom from you.You don't belong to another human being."

The woman hugged the girl,almost tightly.

"Don't let his lies and manipulation words get you.Open your eyes and see that you deserve something more and better."

The girl teared up,holding on to the woman.

"But I love him.And he loves me."

"No doubt he does.But what comes first?Your mental health and growth,or someone who will make you feel shit and hold you back everyday?"

She pulled away,wiping the girl's tears away with the back of her hand.

"It is okay to cry.It is okay to cry when you leave someone who you have shared so much with.But please,you wanted to improve yourself,be happier and have a healthier mindset.It is time for once to be selfish and cut some people from your life so you can improve yourself.For your own good."

"Selfish?I can't.What will he think and feel?How will our friends react?They will hate me and stop talking to me.As if anything,he will probably destroy me if i leave him."

"And you think that's okay?"

The girl lifted up her head,looking up at the woman."What?"

"Do you think it's okay for him to say those words?'I will destroy you if you leave me.We will be together forever.I did this for revenge and fun because you deserved it.Don't do this,don't do that.'This isn't a healthy relationship my dear.He is controlling you.I am not excluding the good parts,yes he helped you,but let's be honest;He liked it when you were vulnerable and clawing onto him for support.And when you show confidence or go against him,he feels attacked.You have free will and he is trying every time to make a pity of himself.He is obsessed with you,this love is obsession.And he is afraid to lose that one person because you showed some emotion to him.But you can't risk your mental health for someone."

The girl looked away,thinking to herself with a sigh.

"It's your decision,but please consider what I said.Choose wisely."

She looked back at her,smiling slightly.

"Thank you for opening my eyes."

The woman smiled.

"I am always here."

The two females looked at each other,as the girl rested her hand on the mirror,smiling at the reflection of the woman she was seeing inside of her.

The situation was sad and frustrating.

But for once,for once in my God damn life,i needed to think for myself so I can be happier.

He helped me,for sure,he gave me a boost,and his words will be near and dear to my heart and I won't forget.

But when the bad times come,this is when you truly see someone and what they do.

I didn't say I wasn't the one to blame sometimes.

We were both to blame for.

But now,it is time for real to get help and improve myself.

I am not saying I am not going to cry,or not miss the good moments.

But with time,love wears off,to the point of scrapping it to the ground,pushing ourselves to keep going when in reality..

Love isn't there anymore.

Only need.

We gave so much love with so much toxicity.

I think it's time to go.

At first it will be hard.

But it will be better for the both of us.

We will take a deep breath and finally relax ourselves.

I will save myself,and be my own support,not having to rely on others.

It will be a first step into improving myself.

Thank you for understanding.

And I am sorry for breaking our hearts.

But if we see each other again in the future,I hope you see a better version of myself.

A better woman.
