Things are as they are, not as they should be!

No Longer Valid

Drabble

There were signs! Today, when I sit back and think, all those inconsequential things do add up. How you would never accept certain calls in our presence and then excuse yourself to make calls minutes later. Oh, those unaccountable hours and finances and the ludicrous excuses. How naive I was!

I think, we love each other, still, but guess it’s not enough, just like the rings in our hands… they are still there but no longer valid.

I’m not bitter or jealous.

Just hurt.

I thought, I’d be able to get through all of this, but I was so wrong!

    1. Agree, it is important to handle the warning signs before it is too late. But mostly, it’s wait and watch or things would get better sooner or later, but they rarely do!

  1. I guess ignoring the signs will rust the relationship! It’s better to pay attention and solve problems as and when they arise instead of ignoring them or piling up for later!

    1. Oh! An acquaintance of ours went through this too. Though it took a long time for her to come out of the depression, hurt and pain, thankfully, life is smiling at her once again! Touch wood!

  2. Hmmm well now those are the signs that need to be picked up early and a decision made wether to talk it out or part ways and make a new life..

    1. I know what you mean, Bikram. But I wonder, if such decisions are that easy to take! And parting ways though may be the best option but it may not be feasible for some! Or may be if only they took that step…

  3. Wonder what goes on in the minds of such cheats! A sad truth for many, some suffer while others take action.Great write-up.

    1. I know… wonder if they are able to sleep peacefully at night! True, very few take that step while most continue to accept the changed circumstances, sadly!
