In Love with a Memory

It is that pivotal moment in a person’s life where that one person they thought they would end up with one day is … marrying someone else. I have dreaded the moment that my college boyfriend is saying the “I do’s” and it is not with me. I have been struggling since their engagement but not until it became less than two weeks away have a really had time to think about it. I dream about it every night. I genuinely thought that we would get back together one day ... but recently I have been really thinking about it. I do not know the name of his job, I have no idea what his house looks like, we have not actually spoken since he has been engaged and the last words were me saying congratulations on you engagement. I think it is just the memory of my youth and the fun times that are making me sad and not the actual person that I have no idea about in the present. Everyone has that one person that they thought would be perfect for them and although it is crushing to see them as perfect for someone else, I guess you have to move on.
