This is the email I’ve sent Alan.. I’m too tired to type out my feelings anymore. I’m tired of everything..
Dear ,
take this as an advance birthday email I guess. It’s probably the last email I would send you. Read this with an open mind and maybe you will see where I’m coming from.
Within this short period of time, you have changed a lot you know. It may not think so or may feel that it’s not a change, but at least I do, since I’m on the receiving end of most of it.
Choosing to be on the side of someone because of your career instead of me that you’ve spent the past 1 year 5 months with is hurtful. But I can understand I guess. You are at an age where you need the money and financial stability so love and relationships can be put aside. I can understand this, even though it may not go with what I do.
But the biggest difference was the messages. Think back, dear, one month, two months back, in july 2007 when i was still doing my professional attachment, or august 2007 or even before, would you have done this at all?
Would you have messaged another girl with lovey dovey messages, calling her bao bei, asking her to take care, sleep early….
While not asking me about my sickness, not messaging me to ask me how I am, not even replying my messages.
Would you have done this at all? You know how much I detest Daryl’s behavior, of being with Julianna and yet messaging another girl and liking them and so on.. You yourself thought that it was wrong.
But you are doing the same thing dear except much worse.
Please don’t tell me she take your mind off things or it’s just socialising and that it’s common. The fact that you consciously did that while being attached to me is so hurtful do you understand?
I know in your new circle of friends, this kind of thing is very common.. But dear, it is not common at all to other people, especially me. I don’t message other guys this kind of thing just so I can take my mind off my problems. It’s a choice.
And you chose to escape from your problems by hurting me.
The most hurtful of it is you thought nothing of your actions. You could actually tell me that’s socialising. People don’t socialise like that dear. When we were at the beginning of our relationship, you would message me tons of messages everyday. Asking me to drink water, sleep early and so on. Exactly what you are doing with her now. I know you are tired of me. I didn’t think this would happen but it just did.. The old Alan would love me so much that he wouldn’t even think of doing such things…
How could you so callously hurt me and yet not feel a thing? That’s the change I’m talking about. The Alan I know would never have done this at all. He knows how much importance I place on faithfulness. Not just physically but emotionally as well. And he would never do such things to hurt me. He would just bear with all of it on his own because he is strong enough. And because I’m with him all the way.
Even till now, I’m still in.. shock maybe. I simply cannot associate you with those messages.. Dear do you see how that is so not you? At least not the old you..
Maybe in your new career path, you have to do all these things to advance in your career. Make new business deals.. Of course I don’t and can’t control you. It’s a choice, every single thing you do..
I would be happy to be doing private tuition with you, not earning a lot.. But enough to be comfortable.. But too bad that’s just too late. Once people change, I guess they can’t change back anymore..
I hope you see how much you have changed, for the better or worse.
I hope you will be able to earn the money you expect to earn in the future.. I hope you will still remember the things you once believed in, the things you once stand for.. You were so wise, but now you are just in the midst of it all that maybe those things that were once important is no longer so.
Maybe you are right. Maybe you and I just cannot be a couple anymore. I will only stand in your way of your biz deals and all the girls you have to entertain.
I wish I could have the old Alan back. More innocent, sweeter and more real. At least he wouldn’t have broken my heart.
love,
jass
