To My Old Partner, It’s been several years now since we stopped working together, but I still find myself thinking about you all the time. It’s funny, it’s an old movie cliché, man and women get together, they butt heads at first, but then they become close. Then one day one of them dramatically declares their love for another, and they live happily every after. You and I butted heads at first, but for me, that feeling quickly subsided in favor of an intense romantic attraction. It was innocent at first, but as time went on I began to realize you were my dream woman. I couldn’t tell you though. This isn’t the movies, what if you didn’t feel the same way? Sure, it’s obvious to everyone around us that you and I had an incredible spark. We laughed together, shared thoughts and problems together, and had countless meals together on the job. And then there’s your family. You have a husband and two kids. As much as I want to be with you, I can’t break up a family. For all these reasons I’ve never come out and said it, not to you, not to my friends, hell, not even to myself in the shower. But I can finally say it here now that we haven’t seen each other in so long. You are the woman of my dreams and I am madly in love with you. I know you better than your husband, and I treat you better too. I hate that he gets to spend every day with you while I am stuck dreaming about you from afar. How would my life have been different if I told you how I felt? In any case, this is where we find ourselves… You’re living in domestic bliss with your little family, and I am here in my apartment alone and wondering if any of the girls I date will ever measure up to you. But I suppose in the end, no matter how I feel, it’s good that you’re happy. I just want you to know what an incredible woman you truly are. I miss you and I will always cherish the time we had together. You’re Former Partner, Anonymous
