I dated a girl who emotionally abused me for months and when I finally split things off I cried everyday for a couple months. I split things off with a girl who I loved with all my heart, I continue to believe I would cross oceans for her, yet I have not cried. I'm an oxymoron, a lesson in irony. I'm an upbeat jazz number, played in a minor chord. I feel the world for those around me, and only bitter disdain for myself. I'm attractive, I've got a strong jaw line, and a nose most guys would **** for. I dress better than the guys I run with, and my hair does exactly what I want it to. I read French existentialist authors and consider myself well versed in modern jazz. I've got a steady job, and I've never been late once. When I think about who I am, and the jealousy I feel towards the happiness I am not providing you, I get sick to my stomach. All I've ever wanted is for you to be happy and you appear to be so and I'm upset because I'm a jealous ***** of a man who has the emotional capacity of a child longing for his mother's teet. I don't know why I feel the way I do but I'm out of *** and I have to deal with how I'm feeling and that will be a first.
