He Didn't Love Me Until I Left Novels & Stories

Gerard echoed, "Life has been hard on her. You don't care, fine, but mocking her? Where's your class?" They were smitten with her. No doubt about it. I recalled their childhood promise to be my knights, protecting me forever. Time had changed everything. Just a scheming girl had them eating out of her hand. Neither of them was worthy of my trust or could bring me happiness. Then again, our bond was more like siblings. If my parents hadn't pushed marriage, I wouldn't have considered it. I left a gift for the matriarch and turned to leave. Roger didn't budge. "Our families have an arrangement. If you walk out, Gerard and I won't chase you like before. If you apologize to Lauren, I'll forgive y

He sounded like he was begging me. I stood up. "Leonard Burton, I don't love you anymore." He raised his head and stared at me in shock, his gaze full of agony. "You really don't… love me anymore?" I fell silent for a while and replied, "I used to love you deeply, but now, I love freedom and the world more." He closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face. Just like that, I turned around and left. When I walked to the door, I heard his soft voice. "I wish you all the happiness in the world."

"Hey! You're such a liar bro, don't be so in denial I know that you're in love with her that's why your relationship with Francesca didn't work out because your heart belongs to someone else." Levi is right. I'm thirty-three but still single. My last relationship was two years ago but I decided to end it because she wanted to start a family but I'm not into it. She expects too much from me and I can't give it to her. And I know for a fact that she is not the one I can imagine myself in the future with. What's good about her is that she is very understanding of me when I explained to her my reason for agreeing with me. But no matter how hard I tried to be in a relationship with someone else m

I wanted to say my goodbyes to his face but i would leave earlier. “Hey” He greeted from the phone, and i remembered how he was the core thing holding me during cancer and chemo by being there each round and cheering me on. I loved him, i truly did. In fact, i was sure i love him. But just not enough to make me stay. And i wasn’t even letting go, i planned to reach out and talk. That was also fate, drawing me back to meet the love of my life. All this time, i paused making him question if was still on the line. “Hello” He croaked as i sobbed. “I’m sorry, Alex but i’m leaving. I’m leaving tomorrow for Miami” I whispered softly on the line.

I made up my mind to talk to mom. Mom picked it immediately to my surprise because she hardly picks calls. It’s either the phone is on her bag and wouldn’t hear it or she left it in the living room and wouldn’t know. You would have given her several missed calls before she calls back. But today was quite different, I felt good or should I say better for picking immediately. I needed to hear her own opinion. I decided to narrate my ordeal to her. She gave a big sigh like she was sad. Then she spoke very clear, “Listen, my dear daughter, you may not know you love him until he leaves you.” “Meaning,” I said.

"Then what do you want?" "I want to go back. To before. To the night you left. I want to stop you from walking out that door." He faces me. "I want to tell you I love you. I want to tell you I don't care about the article. I want to tell you that none of it matters as long as you stay." "But I didn't stay." "No. You left. And I let you." His voice cracks. "I've been letting people leave my whole life. My mother. My friends. You. Everyone leaves."

He professed love even as he hollowed out my power at the company and sabotaged my ties with my family. When there was nothing left to take, he stopped pretending and told me the truth. He even said he had never loved me. That was really hurtful. When I remembered the coldness in Dan’s eyes, a dull ache spread through my chest. When my thoughts cleared, I was already in the car with him. Judging by the direction we were heading, it could only be the crematorium. I did not think he would bother to see me at all. By the time we arrived, the process had already begun.

Waited for me to give her a real proposal. I gave her nothing. I thought she wouldn't leave. Everyone told me how much she loved me — so much that everyone knew. I took it for granted. Since she loved me that much, she wouldn't leave. But love isn't infinite. She gave me all her love, and I gave her nothing but indifference, neglect, and ninety-nine times of turning away. Her love ran out. And then she left.

“And I have always wanted you. Even after you left, even when I was dating Josh, there’s something about you that I can’t let go. I used to think it was just the sex, but as the months and years wore on, I realized that it wasn’t the sex I was missing. It was you. It was the way you made me feel. Like I could do anything in the world because you were there beside me.” I paused for a moment, taking a deep breath. “But then you left me. And I realized that you didn’t leave me because you didn’t love me. You left because you didn’t know how to deal with what you were going through. That doesn’t make it right, but I do understand it.” He walked towards and kneeled right in front of me. “Yoo-Mi,”

rules broken. "I think I want you but I won't let myself have you." He told me. "You belong to someone who'd love you. I don't think I have any love left in me to give." I took that as a challenge. I knew a challenge when I heard one and I was going to show him that he had so much love left to give... even after I was gone from his life and he found someone else.
