Thank you for hurting me to the point that I realized I don't deserve someone like you.

I was so down on you that even if you fooled me a hundred times, I would still love you with everything I have. I've been treated poorly, disrespected, and betrayed over and over again. But I was so in love with you that I was willing to turn myself blind to all the bad things that you had done to me. I was literally the one who would willingly die for you. No matter how painful it was to love you, I would always choose to stay. I was so stupid to think that you would also do the same for me. I was stupid to think that you could love me right too.

But today, I want to say thank you for hurting me again. Not because I deserve it, but because I realized that I do not deserve any less. That I do not deserve you. I do not deserve all the heartbreaks that you gave me. It took me a lot of pain before I realized that I'm already tired of putting up with something that I do not deserve. I've cried a lot, hated myself for so long, and told myself that I wasn't enough so many times— all because I wasn't treated properly. You robbed my happiness and self-respect from me, yet I was still there for you, thinking that you were the only one who could make me happy.

Thank you for making me realize that you are not good for me. Thank you for hurting me so badly that I learned to realize that I deserve better.
