Dear Ones Who
Missed Out,
You have crushed me. You have made
me feel completely worthless. You have made me feel like I was never meant to
be happy. You have made me cry countless times. You have made me stay in my bed
at night cradling my broken heart. You have made me think that I’m not good
enough. You have convinced me that I’m not pretty enough. You have made me feel
like no one would ever want to fight for me. You have made me think you were
the best I was going to get. You made me believe that you were the only one I
deserved. But the thing is, you were so wrong to do that.

I am none of that, but I want to
thank you. In crushing me, you helped me build myself back up with experience.
In making me unhappy, you helped me find happiness within myself. In making me
cry, you helped me grow stronger. In cradling my broken heart, I have restructured
it so others like you will never hurt it again. In making me think I’m not good
enough, you’ve made me realize my own worth. In making me feel like I’m not
pretty, I’ve learned to appreciate my flaws. In not fighting for me, I learned
to fight for myself. I now realize you were never the best for me. I now know I
deserve so much more than the likes of you. I am happier without you. So thank
you. Because of you, I have become a better person. Because of you, it made me
ready for someone I do deserve.
You have missed out. I would never
hesitate to show my appreciation for someone I would have cared about. I would
do whatever I could to make you happy. I would have listened to everything you
said and remembered the littlest details. I would have taken the time to be a
part of your interests. I would have been so proud of your accomplishments. I
would have accepted all parts of you. Someone else is lucky enough to be in
this position now. Someone else saw what you didn’t. Someone else appreciates
everything I am. And so, I am proud to say that YOU are the one suffering the
loss.
Sincerely,
The One that Got Away
