3 Month Rule. Waiting for 3 months before commiting into a new relationship. - Respect your ex.
- Do not use another person just to forget your past.
- Patch things up.
Me:
It doesn’t make sense. Why wait for 3 months if you have moved on already? Why respect your ex if he’s the one who brought pain in your heart? Commiting into a new relationship right after you broke up with your ex does not mean you are using your new man to heal the wound. What do you need to patch up? You’re not expecting for a reconciliation. Do you? I am not guilty with this 3 month rule. Yes. I entered another relationship right after my ex and I broke up. So what? This does not mean that I am a bitch. First and foremost, we broke up because I got tired. I got tired of his pride. I got tired waiting for nothing. I got tired of holding on while he doesn’t know that there’s a problem and I’m about to let go. Secondly, my heart’s not a steel. It can feel pain. Though he brought happiness into my life for two years, he hurt me with that single week that he haven’t cared about me. Lastly, I tried to solve the problem buthe drove me away thinking that I will let the problem pass and continue with our relationship. I swallowed my pride but then he kept on holding on to his pride. What for? That does not make him a man. Actually, that makes him less of a man. He’s is proving not only to me but also to himself that he is self-centered and afraid to take the blame.
Within that week that he haven’t talked to me, reached for me, looked for me, appeared in front of me, he let me realized the things that I must’ve took in consideration before continuing our relationship. He let another man enter my life and let me realize that this man can take better care of me. But even though I was beginning to wake up from the reality that he is changing and I became less of his priority already, I still tried to talk to him but he drove me away thinking that it will not bring impact to me. I tried to wait for his explanation, that he will try to patch the problem that we are facing, that he will say sorry and admit his mistake but I waited for nothing. Then another man came. He made me happy. He became a good friend. He listened to my thoughts. He was there when I was in stress thinking of him and waiting for him. He confessed his feelings and respected that I cannot give back what he is feeling for me because I am still expecting for us to reconcile. I avoided from falling in love with him. I decided to end the waiting and give my ex another week to reach for me. And again, I waited for nothing. With a snap, all I felt for him was regret and anger. With a blink of an eye, I already moved on and fell for the man that cared for me on those times that he was holding on to his pride. Does that makes me a bitch? If so, I really don’t care. I did my part in our relationship. He didn’t. Now, respect me and my decision. All I can say is thank you for the 2 years of pain and happiness. I already woke up to the reality. And that is we are really not meant for each other and I am not a martir to swallow all the pain that you caused me and may cause me in the future. I am happy now. Extremely happy…with Abel Dominique Cañete. To those people who are thinking that I’m a bitch for diving into a new relationship right after breaking up with my ex and not considering the two years that we’ve been through, my middle finger goes up for all of you. You don’t know our story and you are ignorant when it comes to relationships. Who cares about 3 month rule? It’s the heart that knows when to fall. Days and months do not exist. When it’s time to fall in love again, it’s time.
Parang baby lang. He likes it so much when I run my fingers on his hair, play with his lashes, and hugs him while he’s sleeping. Gusto niyang ginagawa ko ‘yan para makatulog siya. Gusto niyang nakahiga yung ulo niya sa hita ko o di kaya nakaakap siya sa legs ko. Parang ewan talaga pero cute :) LOL.
