Say Something – A Great Big World, Christina Aguilera
Every time I reflect on this moment in time, I truly wish I’d been strong enough to walk away. I was unhappy and felt so weakened by him. I knew I deserved better than what he offered me but believed we could get back to where we were. I wish I’d remembered that it took him only hours to relapse after being away from me, why on Earth would long distance be any different? I knew it was doomed but was holding on to him as long as I could before I had to say goodbye.
I’d given up on him but at least the last physical memory I have of him is a happy one. The last day we shared wasn’t enough but at the time, we both foolishly believed that it was.
I’d never had a man fight for me like that; in a race against the clock to get to the hotel to stop me from leaving. His last hurrah to stop me from leaving but no offer of financial compensation when I arranged to stay. Was it just for a couple of extra quickies? Or a free dinner? Or both? Or was he truly being genuine? I will never know.
