Authenticity & A Promise

So I went and downloaded all of my data from Facebook including Facebook messages. I’ve been reading back over some of our earlier messages and it’s amazing to me how willing I was to share with you because of how you made me feel. Almost right away I felt comfortable enough to talk about some of the darkness I had just come out of. That you were lifting me out of. I was able to talk about some family issues, basic philosophies of life, and the bad relationship I just broke off. Again, it was as if I had already known you for years, it’s just uncanny, looking back and reading over it. Another thing I noticed is that we both seemed to feel free enough to be our authentic selves. Goofy, a little weird, but comfortable enough with each other to be just that. I like that about us both back then and all the way up through today.


One thing that dawned on me while reading over the chat logs was that I made a promise to myself relatively soon after talking with you. It was when I was really getting to know who you were as a person and how kind, soft, loving you are. I promised that even if we went out on one date or got married that I would never deliberately hurt your heart and that if I ever did hurt it accidentally, I would do everything in my power to mend it. I hope I’ve lived up to that promise. It would kill me to think that I hadn’t. Looking back, it was part of my ongoing set of vows to you before we promised our actual ones.
