I always thought that stupid saying "What you don't know, can't hurt you" is ridiculous. But they are spot on. What you hear, you can't unhear. What you see you can't unsee. And God, I wish I could. That way this wouldn't hurt so much. This wouldn't feel like my heart is being ripped out of my chest and squeezed repeatedly. Like it's being dragged through the mud, without a chance to fight.

Maybe images I saw won't be forever burned in my mind, maybe all the words that had been said won't be forever ringing in my ears, but the feeling of powerlessness...confusion...disappointment...anger. Oh those feelings I will remember. I will never forget how it made me feel. I won't allow myself to forget.

I got myself ready for bed, took my phone and typed one last text

Fool me once shame on you

Fool me twice, that's apparently what you do

I'm done, I'm done getting hurt by you, by anyone as a matter of fact. I'm just done.

Have a nice life.

I didn't even wait for reply, I just blocked his number. And for the first time ever, I felt weight getting off my chest. For the first time ever, I felt relieved.

 For the first time ever, I felt relieved
