Of Course I Miss You—But Let Me Be Honest
A raw and honest reflection on love, self-worth, and reclaiming who you used to be
Do you really need to ask me if I miss you? Of course I do. How could I not? I invested so much of myself—my time, my energy, my heart—into our relationship. It’s only natural that I’d feel the absence of something that once meant so much to me.
But here’s the thing: as much as I miss you, there’s someone else I miss even more. And that person is me.
The Person I Used to Be
I miss the version of myself that existed before I met you. That guy—the one who was always smiling, who radiated confidence, who people loved to be around—that’s who I truly miss.
- I miss waking up every morning with clarity about who I was
- I miss hitting the gym without hesitation
- I miss being unapologetically me
Before I met you, I knew exactly who I was. But somewhere along the way, I lost sight of that person. I changed everything about myself to fit into what I thought our relationship needed.
What I Don’t Miss
While I’ll admit I miss you, let me tell you what I absolutely don’t miss:
- Being disrespected: The constant feeling that my efforts were never enough
- Feeling inadequate: Hearing over and over again that I wasn’t good enough
- Living in chaos: Always feeling like something was wrong
Finding My Way Back to Me
Yes, I miss you. But what I miss more is the man I was before I let your presence overshadow my sense of self. This journey isn’t easy, but I’m ready to do the work because I owe it to myself.
