I found out recently that someone I once loved had actually began their web of lies the first time we hung out. As our relationship progressed, so did the lie. The first I love you that I was told used to seem so magical to me. I believed every syllable.See, the difference here is that I was completely honest.For I waited to say I love you until I truly meant it. When that day came, I said those three words with so much truth.
I didn’t know that a white lie had been embedded into our relationship from day one. You would think that this would discourage me now, since I know all the facts and that honesty is not a word found in his dictionary. But, I am not discouraged, made sad, or even regretful of the relationship. I have moments where I wish I had done things differently, but looking at it once it is all over shows me that I am able to accept it.
See, I had a relationship where I told the truth, went through each moment honestly and committed. I learned how to let someone in, love on them with all my heart, and risk the chance of getting hurt. That’s how I know it was worth it. That’s how I know that I am better off than them. If it was so easy for them to begin a relationship based on a bed of lies, than how could they ever have an honest one? I know that there is someone out there so incredibly meant for me, who is honest, loving, and caring. The bright side of this trial I have gone through is that I learned that I do know how to love someone completely. I know how to be truthful, and take risks for someone else, and grow. That is what matters out of my experience and I know that will be accomplished.
