Why I'll Never be Sad about the Guy that Ghosted Me

I'm not sure what made you decide I wasn't worth the trouble, especially considering you never took the time to really get to know me.

But the truth is that it doesn't matter because it's your loss. You lost out on the opportunity to have someone like me in your life.

You missed out on all of the things that I could have given you and learning about all of the things that make me who I am.

So you'll never know about all my hidden talents or my funny little quirks. You'll never know what a loyal, stubborn, smart-mouth I am, and how endearing it actually is. 

You'll never know that I was willing to put my fragile heart on the line for you. I dusted it off with every intention of sticking it back onto my sleeve, but you won't get to experience that now.

You'll never get to see the way the sun makes my eyes change colors or how good I am at making people laugh. 

You'll never know what my favorite color is or if I prefer cats or dogs. You'll never meet my family and understand that I'm actually the normal one.

You'll never feel how safe and intense my love is or know that I give the best advice. 

You're never going to know that I'm so much more than some girl who caught your glance and then just faded into the shadows.

So I'm really not all that sad that you ghosted. In fact, you're the one who should be sad because you'll never get to know me.
