I knew I was over you when I stopped putting my phone on the loudest sound setting before going to bed to make sure I would wake up if you texted me
I knew I was over you when your name no longer came up in my recently searched on Facebook
I knew I was over you when I stopped waking up at night to check my phone for a call, text, or even a snap chat
I knew I was over you when I stopped making excusesย  to talk to you
I knew I was over you when I stopped asking our friends how you were doing
I knew I was over you when I finally hit that delete button and watched the last three years of my life get erased
I knew I was over you when I boxed up all of the stuff you had given me
I knew I was over you when I gave you back your t-shirt
I knew I was over you when I stopped waking up to dreams about you
I knew I was over you when our song came on the radio and I no longer had to change the station
I knew I was over you when I could look at our Facebookย  memories and not feel my heart break all over again
I knew I was over you when I stopped crying over what was no longer mine
I knew I was over you when I stopped imagining you regretting your decision
But most importantly...
I knew I was over you when I saw you and I no longer hated you for what you did to me but felt grateful to youย  for what you taught me during the time I was with you
...that's when I knew I was over you
Thank You
JM
