I guess this is goodbye.

Did I know you, really? Did I love you, or did I just love what you wanted me to see? Did you ever really love me? I only really know, and remember your face now. But remembering or knowing you as a person it's like the song says "you have the eyes of a stranger". I don't think I would enjoy being with you now. You strike me as being a little too ridged, cold, heartless, bereft of passion, shallow, superficial, materialistic, worldly, vain, condescending, antagonistic, critical, self serving, manipulative, cruel, cowardly, treacherous, and overall just a really obnoxious person. I think you would most likely make my life miserable, and you would be absolutely no fun to be with. Aside from all that, it looks like you made so much baggage for yourself, that doesn't quite match the luggage that I'm carrying. You got three big extra pieces there, and I don't want to be stuck here in the place I grew up forever. I want someone I can travel with, be free with, and have great adventures with, and I just can't see that quite happening with you. I need someone better suited for me.

You basically just described my ex. Complete narcissist. If your person is like that you’re absolutely making the right choice to stay away. What they offer is nothing more than the illusion of a true relationship when all you really are to them is a tool to be used and then thrown away when you no longer fit their needs. Keep going and don’t look back!

I thought for a moment that this was the guy who made (and I realize still makes) my heart sing and whom I loved so much to make laugh. I mean, every time it made my day to hear him laugh. But he would never have written such a long post nor would he use the vocabulary you showed even though he's very smart. He was always down on himself even though I believedin him to do otherwise. So, OP, I hope the one who moved you so much to write this is given another chance so he can make amends and blow you away while proving you wrong because if he didn't matter you wouldn't have put this much effort into what you wrote today. It looks like you're still stuck on him and just a bit sore because it's not going to plan. But you don't know what the future brings either. For all you know, it's up to you to make one last direct personal move. Yup, you have to open the door. You have to make the call, offer that one last chance to talk.

I don’t have a single good quality, then?
You’re right, you don’t remember or know me anymore.
How do you know I can’t be those things for you? We never tried

Wrong. When a person shows you those qualities believe them. Occasional stuff, for sure we’re just flawed humans after all, but that many more than once indicates a definite pattern. My guy had some good qualities too and made me laugh a lot. But he made me cry much more often as time went on. If I had paid attention to the bad stuff early on, he would have never had the chance to break my heart.

My guy had some good qualities too and made me laugh a lot. But he made me cry much more often as time went on. His times of being down on himself were overshadowed immensely by all the times he displayed arrogance and a massive superiority complex along with non-stop criticism. I now realize that it doesn’t matter why they’re so damaged, just that they ARE and they virtually never show any desire to question themselves or change their behaviour. If I had paid attention to the bad stuff early on, he would have never had the chance to break my heart over and over again.

Well, you certainly recognized your own description in this confession so as far as your good traits... afraid the bad ones kinda just cancel it all out.

I'm no genius. If I was a genius I would have seen right through you. Unlike you, I'm merely genuine.
