10 Reasons Why She Finally Left Him For Good

Dec 19, 2018 by apost team

She tried to tell you how much you hurt her. Sometimes, you listened, but most of the time, you just made her question why she was hurting in the first place.

She tried for so long to make things work. She wanted your love more than anything. She was willing to sacrifice her heart and happiness just to hear you say, "I love you," one more time.

But then, something changed. She got tired of fighting for a love that didn't love her back. She was tired of you ruining her happiness and robbing her of the joy she deserves. She deserves it. And now she is gone, and you're wondering why. Let me tell you for her.

1. She Left Because She Controls Her Destiny, Not You

Love is supposed to be serendipitous and wonderful. You should feel like life has swept you off your feet and into a magnificent dance with an incredible partner. But every day with you felt like drowning. You made her struggle for air. Everything was always what you wanted; you picked the restaurant, you chose the movie, you shot down all her fun date ideas because you were lazy and didn't feel like leaving your house.

She sat around waiting for you to notice her, but then she caught a glimpse of her own eyes instead. She fell in love with the woman gazing back in the mirror, and now she is going to live the passionate life she was meant to.

2. You Didn't Know How to Love

She poured her heart and soul into you. She was brave and vulnerable, but you wouldn't accept her. You made her feel ashamed for caring. You made her feel like love was a matter of convenience, and that you'd love her when you felt like it. She wasn't good enough for you to just love all the time.

She finally found herself. Inside her soul, there is a love that never goes out. She will look for the one who shares that love, and he won't be afraid to tell her how he feels. Love is never convenient. Love just is.

3. She Left Because She Found Herself

One day, all of her friends' advice finally made sense. She just had to realize it for herself. She deserves better, and she's got so much to offer someone. Hell, she has a lot to offer herself.

She doesn't need your approval to feel good about herself, and now, she's going to live the life she was meant to.

4. She Was Tired of Fighting for Your Attention

Between all the missed calls, unanswered texts and late nights wondering why she wasn't good enough, she realized that the problem was you, not her. You swore you cared, and you might think you went out of your way to include her in your life.

Did you really try, though? You didn't try unless it didn't feel like trying at all. Real effort didn't matter to you because she did enough work for the both of you. Thank goodness she realized that she deserves better. She deserves someone who wants to spend his time talking to her. She has so much to say, and all of it is worth hearing.

5. She Left Because You Made Her

There are so many reasons, and you know them all. If you looked deep down, you'd realize that there are so many opportunities for love that you turned into moments of heartache. You treated her like shit. You didn't respect her. You thought she was cool, but only when she said what you wanted to her.

Now, you will never get to tell her she is beautiful and watch her face light up. You will not make love to her. You won't get to wake up to her and just watch her sleep. You traded a lifetime of love and memories away for what?

6. You Were Abusive

The petty jabs, passive criticisms and downright hurtful things you said made her question her self-worth for a while. She's okay now. Some of the things you said will echo in her head and sting in her heart, but she knows they're just lies.

Your abuse has no place in her life, and she is better off without the misplaced anger you don't know how to handle.

7. She Realized a Relationship Takes Two People to Work

After a while, she realized that she was the only one putting any effort into being together. She was someone you talked to when you were bored. You always showed up at the last minute and only stayed for half as long.

She wants someone who wants to be with her, and she is going to find him.

8. You Didn't Respect Her

Her choices didn't matter to you. Every conversation was a fight, and her opinions always required an explanation while yours were law. You just wanted her to shut up and go along with things.

Your way or the highway, right? Time for the road trip of her life.

9. She Realized She Deserves Better

If things were this bad and you wouldn't even commit, imagine how they'd be if you were together. She wasn't going to waste her life fighting for someone who wouldn't even give her the time of day. She realized that, as much as she wanted to heal you, you could never love her back. You probably wouldn't want to even if you could.

She was tired of wasting her time trying to fix you. She wanted someone to just enjoy being with her and not feel drained after every long talk or painful fight.

10. You Ignored Her

Even the most patient heart can only bear the agony of silence so long before it moves on. You didn't treat her like a partner. She was an afterthought, and you made her feel like one every single day.

Talking to her is not a chore. It is a privilege. She's going to find the one who will hang on every word she says and love nothing more than getting lost in her voice.
