Hello, my wonderful friends! Cherry here to say that I'm over it! Isn't this wonderful? I'm back to my real, normal self and I have lots of spare time now, too! I expected it to be painful but it's not. I haven't lost a thing. In fact, I sort of wonder why he hadn't ended it sooner.
Anyway, below are two letters that I wrote to him, if you wanted to see them.

*sigh* Love always ends in hate. I should know that. Well, Kevin, if you hate me, I can't blame you. Lots of people do, for some odd reason. I never tried to hurt you. I never wanted to. I think that this was just a mistake. Everything. You and your time travel. Who was the bigger fool?
And that question will never be answered. It was you, for loving me. It was me, for not giving up. It was you, for ending it. It was me, for not ending it sooner.
So I guess this is really the end? I've been forced to end something if I want to keep my dignity and pride. And my head. But it just pains me that such a great friend could end up pretty much hating me. That's what it sounds like, anyway. Do you hate me? We'll never know the answer to that, either.
If you want to know the truth, when I was reading your final message, my only physical response was my heart quickening. I didn't cry, I didn't feel like crying, I didn't scream, my mouth didn't drop in disbelief. If you want to cause yourself pain, then be my guest. But you should know that all along, you were right.
It is better for me to forget about you. I should probably just put you on my ignore list so that if, against all odds, you try and come back, I won't have to deal with it. Eventually, I probably will forget, and my love for you will die, extinguished by your last words and time itself. You will never just be another one of the six billion people on the earth. But you will be one of those who knew me, and left me behind. You've ended what could have been a great friendship. But if it pains you to talk to me, then it was probably for the best.
If I said you were right about me not loving you, even as a friend, then I would be lying. But I would not be lying by saying that my love will eventually be no more, and I will only occasionally wonder what happened to you.
Fine. If you want me to give up, then I will. I'll stop trying to make a connection because you certainly don't want one. But I'll still think about you.
I don't know what else to say. Except that, if you ever get over me and want to be friends again, all you have to do is say the word and you can save yourself from days of pain and boredom. I'm always here for anyone who wants to talk.
Ironically, this end has been the least painful of all. Right now I'm just siting, breathing, typing, not feeling anything. If that makes me apathetic, then so be it. I know I am not normally apathetic.
Anyway, I hope you're happy with your decision. And I hope you find true love.
Cherry

Kevin,
I'm so sorry. I feel really bad right now. I told you today was a weird day. But I have no excuses. I'm such a bad person. I can't forgive myself for this. I hurt the person who loves me so dearly...and I'm afraid that I've caused permanent damage. I don't want you to leave. I especially don't want you to die. So I'll try believing you, because as you pointed out, you promised me that you wouldn't kill yourself and I haven't really trusted you. Well now I'm going to try believing you.
I guess this means we won't talk tomorrow, then, and your days will continue to pass by slowly and painfully. And I apologize for that.
I didn't think you would react that way when I told you I didn't love you the way you love me. You didn't give me a chance to explain (as if I have an explanation). You ran away. And I hurt you. We did the two things we were supposed to avoid.
I can't explain it. I just made my decision. I should have thought about it more, but the thing is I feel as though I've already thought about it enough.
In the last few lines of your poem, you said:
"Michele, I want you to know that no matter what happens that I will always love you with all my heart and nothing will ever change that,
You are my sun and my stars,
You are my ray of hope when I am sad,
Your light shines brightly through my darkened heart,
I thank you so much for always being there for me,
I love you Michele and I’ll always be here for you till the end of time."
And now I wonder if that is really true. But I'm still going to believe you about that, and your whole poem and everything you've ever said. I'll believe it.
It's weird. It's become a habit to say I love you. Will we continue to say that if we speak to each other?
I love you. I really do. Just like I love my friends Julia, Nicole, and Eleanor. My love for you is very strong. It will never be broken or forgotten. However, I think it might never morph into the form of love yours has taken. It will come close. But it will never be the same.
Right now I just want to hold you and tell you that I'm sorry and that everything will be alright. I really want to be there for you. But we're three thousand miles away, and I can't change that in the little time I have to make things right. And even then, I'm not sure if things between us will ever be right again.
But I really hope I'm wrong.
I love you.
