Hello family, l'm here again l saw a prompt that captured my attention in inleo and it really has a lot to do with me, so l decided to write on it and share it with you guys.
Life is not just always smooth most days can be good and most days can be bad too. Sometimes We do cry, laugh, smile, depress and get our feelings hurt ,but the truth is we keep pushing on no matter what.
Just like when we have a partner. A partner is more of like a person who shares or is associated with another in some action or endeavour. Having a partner means you have to be committed to that person no matter the circumstances at hand but sometimes it doesn't always go the way we want it and that is when we should always know when to let go no matter what. I have an experience l would like to share with you guys about knowing when to let go of a partner you love truly.
I met a guy at a supermarket when l was just finished paying for the items l bought for school l was struggling to carry the item l bought from the supermarket that was when he came with a friendly smile that he wants to help me carry one bag, at first l resisted because l didn't really know him that well but after much attempts he did try to convince me. l just had to give him one and told him thank you so he assisted me in taking the things to look for a bike heading to my hostel and eventually l boarded a bike straight to the hostel. I never knew the guy was my neighbor in the hostel l just moved in that day so after reaching the hostel l dropped my things rested for a while and prepared to go for my screening at school, on opening my door behold l saw him trying to open his door close to mine l was shocked and asked him if he lives in the hostel and he said yes so l said no problem nice meeting you and he said the same, looking at me in a romantic way l wasn't too comfortable with it but nevertheless l left immediately.
Since that day this guy kept on disturbing me to be his girlfriend l kept on rejecting his offer, when he noticed l wasn't giving in he started doing things for me just so l could agree for him. And finally l did we started dating two weeks after being in the relationship, he subjected me to start washing his clothes before going to lectures, he also made me cook for him everyday after class l wasn't too comfortable with this because it was affecting me academically l don't even have time for myself anymore, that was how we kept going.
Until one day l just came back from school on reaching the house l wanted to meet him telling him l'm backing, walking to the door l saw another slippers at his door step seems he had a visitor, but l still wanted to knock until l heard this visitors telling him "Do you love her" he said No l don't and never will l, l'm just using her as my house help she means nothing to me, at that point tears roll from my eyes l got hurt because the love l had for me got stronger than before l left immediately to my room ,my heart beating fast ,being shocked and feeling cold because l never expected this to happen. That day l stay in my room without coming out, until evening when his visitor left he came knocking at my door but l didn't utter a word. After several attempts of knocking and no answer he left, immediately l texted him that l'm done with the relationship and l can't keep up with this, he asked me what was wrong but l told him nothing he kept on begging me that if he has done any wrong l should forgive me but l told him he didn't do anything, just that l'm no longer interested in him. I had to make the hardest decision of my life letting go of someone l love even though l got hurt l had to let go for my own emotions and mental health.
In conclusion we could love a toxic partner but afraid to loose that partner because we think if we do we'll get hurt, but we just have to know when to let go of the person bringing us pain despite the love and affection we have for that person.
I really appreciate your time and effort for reading my post and l will be sharing more stories to tell @rukyig blog
