It has been said before… and no matter how hard we try not to make it true… it is a fact…

Love is never enough.

Two people can love each other sincerely and yet not be together… because we live in a world where distance matters, where time matters, where even money matters… work and stress take its toll, life happens… SHIT happens.

No matter how much you try to make it work, it just does not happen the way you want it to happen.

I do not feel bitterness, no more pain… only sadness. I was never angry, only frustrated.

We didn’t break up because of differences. It wasn’t because of a misunderstanding. We just knew, understood that we would be better off without the relationship, without the commitment, without the expectations, without the complications.

A lot of people never understood our relationship. It didn’t make sense to them. But it did to us. And that’s what mattered to us.

But it became difficult… we didn’t live in a bubble that rendered us immune to the realities, and holding on to the relationship became a struggle.

But we are happy. It still doesn’t make sense to most people, but it does to us. And that’s what matters.

Yes, love is not enough. A relationship requires nurturing, hard work, real effort, time, and yes, even money. Unfortunately for us, our lives, our realities, our problems were greater than our relationship.
