5 years after our 1st date

You came back into my life 5 years after our 1st date. I was reluctant because I couldn't believe after all this time you were in front of me this whole time. Feelings developed very quickly through messaging from morning to night. It was lockdown 1 so we werent able to meet even though we wanted too. You told me you loved me before we had met and I felt the same but I kept that to myself. With restrictions lifting we decided to go for a picnic in the park. It was perfect weather. It was one of the best first dates I’d ever been on. The fact the connection was so strong between us. This was real. I thought is he the one I’ve been looking for all this time! We were so excited we met up again the very next day. With such a strong connection nothing else matter when I was with you. The relationship progressed and we stayed round each others houses. We exchanged the I love yous and I was so happy! My first relationship after leaving a toxic one. My first time opening up and letting someone in. I felt loved up and so excited for where it was going. Then he became quiet. Less messages and less effort. Hardly seeing each other. My heart was breaking. Everything I had been looking for slipping through my fingers. There was nothing I could do. He wasn’t in the right place for a relationship. I hate that we went from being friends, to in love to now nothing at all. I still hope one day you will be ready for our love as I think together we can take on the world! I will continue to think what we could of been until I receive that long waited “I miss you” message from you.
