BLOG POST #28- My Breakup/ The Pink Slip
Getting the pink slip always sucks. Luckily for me, I haven’t had to deal with a pink slip in the workforce… not yet at least. Hopefully, never. But what I have dealt with was the pink slip in a relationship. And that sucks more than anything I’ve ever felt before. It seems immature to say that a break-up effected my life more than school, family, or work. But it’s the truth. I dated a girl for fourteen months. I fell in love with her. I believe in love. I’m not sure if I did before this girl, but when It happened, I knew it. Love is unexplainable but you know it when you feel it. And I felt it with her.
We were awesome together. It was amazing. Fourteen months and we never once had a major fight. Some arguments at the most. We were awesome and as far as I heard, people loved us as a couple. They were happy we were together. It was just amazing. But then It happened. The pink slip. In the worst possible way, at the worst possible time. It was a week before New Years. We were both on our winter recess from school. She took a trip out of state to see friends. At two o’clock in the morning one night I get a text from her telling me that she kissed another guy and that she did it repeatedly. She refused to take my phone calls or to discuss it. I told her I still loved her and wanted to discuss it and that’s when she told me over text message from out of state that she didn’t love me back anymore. Then I felt pathetic.
New Years eve, I got together with a bunch of my close guy friends and we partied until I broke down hysterical crying. I felt a loss of all my masculinity. But I loved her and she broke my heart and I couldn’t control it. It effected me for weeks and weeks too. For a while I couldn’t look at her or anyone associated with her without feeling physical pain in my heart. I’ve felt what a broken heart feels like. It sucked. The Pink Slip sucks.
