The Monsters We Made

I know there are a lot of good things that come with being in love, but when you also think of the bad things or sad things that could happen, you end up getting discouraged and not wanting to even give it a try. Also, if there's something we really don't talk about enough, it is how love tends to turn people into wicked people when things eventually go sideways.

The other day, a friend of mine had gotten his heart broken by his girlfriend of more than three years. And the wicked thing here is that she has refused to tell him her reasons for requesting a breakup.

According to this friend of mine, she had woken up one morning and just decided to end things. Every attempt on his part to try to find out the reason for her reasoning has been futile, and this is what is driving him insane right now: him not having any form of closure.

I spent some time earlier today, and he had opened up to me that he hadn't been able to eat since the previous day, and the reason for this is that he keeps asking himself what could be the reason for her calling the whole thing off.

He had told me that if she had given him a reason, maybe if she had told him she cheated or liked someone else, then he could find peace in the fact that he didn't do anything to hurt her and them breaking up wasn't his fault, and that might have given him some peace, and she knew that.

Yet, she had insisted on tormenting him by now, giving him an answer to his question. Sadly, it is situations like this that end up turning good people into heartless ones, and what's even more sad is the fact that the people who end up suffering from this monster aren't the ones who created it.
