Thank You

Dear ex, No. This is not a letter with a whole bunch of "I hate you's", telling you how I wish I never met you asking myself "why did I even date you?" This is to tell you, thank you! Thank you for allowing me to love you you more than I loved myself. Taking the love I showed you and given it to somebody else. Thank you! Thank you for making me feel low when I counted on you more than ever. Breaking me down to my lowest where I felt the hurt would last forever. Thank you! Thank you for ruining me beyond measures, where I would spend days praying that my days would get better. Nights I've cried, asking myself why? What did I do to deserve this pain? Was it me? For my insecurities , it was you I use to blame. For that, I was foolish. To think someone was suppose to love me more than I loved myself. To think someone who treated me like you did, would only try to help fix me while I was broken? I was foolish. Thank you! It only made me understand and appreciate myself. Thank you!
