LOVE..

This is the word which all of us feel at least once in our life...

See I am too young and I might face a lot more in my future but I have this amazing story of mine which might speak to someone going through the same.

The Beginning..

It was 2020, the entire nation was going a horrible time, the lockdown, the pandemic, the Covid-19.

No friends, no colleagues,

And to avoid this loneliness, I decided to explore dating apps.

There I found a girl whose vibes were same as that of mine. We used to talk a lot and decided to meet after the lockdown is over.

As decided, we met.

The journey of love.

BIGGEST WOE OF A RELATIONSHIP...

Everything was fine. We met a lot. We used to study together; we put in almost everything that a healthy relationship needs. But who knew that the toughest period was yet to come?

So she joined an internship, and I was very happy for that. Suddenly a mishap occurred and I had to spend some time in the hospital, which was near her office, so in the free time, like in the evening when her office hour was over, I asked her to meet me, but she denied it. I was ok with that, like I thought. 

'thak gyi hogi, kal mil lenge kya hi hona h'

But this didn't stop here...

She started ignoring me...

And one day my phone rings...

It was her friend who told me that she is with someone else; they used to go to parks and all, but I don't know anything about these. Like when I told her to meet me, she ignored me, and at the same time she was seeing another guy.             

I just wanted to hear the truth from her only so I decided to go and ask directly to her.

And when I asked her, she told me that we are only friends, nothing else. I was not stable after listening to all these but at the same time i can't even believe all these things without any proof. So, I decided not to discuss about this anymore and just moved on.

THE TWIST..

I brought her MacBook because I had to make some presentations. There I saw WhatsApp, so I thought to login to WhatsApp so that it would be easier for me to transfer files. There I saw the guy's chat. I didn't want to check, but my insecurities... 

And the chat contained a lot, which I had never imagined to happen. So I just decided to break up with her.          

But my best friend told me if she confesses the truth, give her another chance.            

And this was my biggest mistake.

I asked her about the chat, and she just agreed on that, but she wanted me to give her another chance. And I agreed!!!

Like I told you. this was my biggest mistake.

After 4 months, her best friend called me and told me to ask her where she was. She told me to ask her to meet.

And as she said, I asked her to meet me, and she just denied. She told me that she's going to her uncle's home.             

But the truth was that she was going to a movie with someone.

I just went to the theater to see if her friend was right or not. But yes, she was right. I saw her with another boy. I had no problem with that, but she could have told me the truth. I was ok with that, but a lie.

When I asked her about all these, she wasn't even sorry for that. When I asked her about the boy, She told me nothing; we are just friends. But then I just read the chats and the call history, like everything was giving signs that now it's not like that, and I was at that stage that now it was the time to go...         

We broke up..

After some months, she tried to contact me. I heard she met an accident

But just because I left her. She and her parents were creating the scene that I was involved in her accident. Everyone was searching for me, and this was the time where I found myself to be the strongest version of myself.             

She threatened me that she'd report all these incidents. I was ok with that too. But at the same time, I thought, What if my parents get to know about all these incidents? But I thought if I had done nothing, why would I be scared?              

After a few months, these things also stopped. And then only my life stabilized...             

And this was my story.. Now I am better than I was back in the years 2020-2022🍀          

Friends, never be afraid of anything if you are right; nothing in this world can prove you wrong. All you need is to stay strong and spread love.          

See you guys with another chapter of my life.
