You Lied

The Hurtful Truth

By Samantha BurgessPublished 6 years ago 2 min read

You lied to me. You lied when you told me that you love me. You lied when you said you would never do anything to hurt me. You lied to me when you said I was the only woman. You lied to me when you said you cared about me, it's very clear to me now that you didn't care at all.

You told me you loved me but all you really wanted was to use me. I made it so easy for you didn't I? I gave you everything I could possibly give you but even that wasn't enough. For you I wasn't enough. I poured everything I had emotionally into you and you gave me nothing in return. And yet you still told me that you loved me.

You said that you would never do anything to hurt me, but you do it constantly. Every time I try to tell you how I feel about something you talk down and belittle me. You make me feel like the way you make me feel means nothing. Like my feelings are wrong in some way. And you will intentionally send me into anxiety attacks and you don't care. You tell me how I have to change certain aspects about myself but you refuse to change anything at all. Yet you would never hurt me right?

You said I was the only woman you wanted but that wasn't true was it. I caught you flirting, telling other women how much you wanted them. Telling them how beautiful and wonderful they are. Telling them how much they meant to you and how you wanted to see them, but I was the only one you wanted right.

You lied the most when you told me you cared about me. If you truly cared about me you wouldn't have done any of these things and I see that now. If you really cared about me you wouldn't have hurt me the way that you did. You wouldn't have lied and led me on.

I loved you more than anything. You meant so much to me and I did so much to show you every single day how much I love and cared about you. I did everything I could think of for you. All I wanted in return was for you to love me. You couldn't even do that. You lied.
