Dated a girl for most of high school, loved her like nobody else. Had anxiety problems, didn't like going out to new places with people I don't now. Didn't even know about anxiety so I had no words to explain my feelings.
She asks me to go to her (we went to different high schools) graduation party. It was something like a cruise, I can't even remember anymore. I refused and it caused a big rift between us. I'm sure other small things happened but I remember that one as being a big deal in our relationship.
One day we were talking she mentioned that maybe we should break up, maybe we didn't belong together. She didn't sound very serious, just one of those 'I want you to say something nice and pay me a compliment' but I was in a dumb teenager mood and I called her bluff with a 'sure maybe we should'
And that was it. We were done. I was shattered but figured it'll just be a little break to adjust ourselves. I still love her and her whole family is close with me.
We stayed distant.
She dated some asshole that beat her and abused her. Her family confided in me that they had to get cops involved.
I contacted her, said we should go out on a date like it is the first time we met. Start over, it's been a few years and we have grown up.
She didn't get the whole 'new start' thing and talked about the past the whole time, told me about the guys she's been with since me. Even how she never loved anyone as much as her abuser because of the passion or something.
Last time we talked she seemed like she'd like to be friends. Told me about a genetic illness (Alopecia areata) I think. She wears wigs now because of it.
We haven't talked in years. I still dream about her. I still think about her almost every day. I'd still marry her.
