Into the arms of another woman

Some women invest time, love, and patience to build a man into someone truly great—the kind of man every woman dreams of having. He becomes stable, loyal, driven, and confident. He now ticks every box… except her BOX.

And because of that one unchecked box, she lets him go. She discards him into the arms of another woman, a woman who now reaps the benefits of what she built.

She watches him grow, love deeper, and thrive like never before. Not realizing that the man she gave up was the man she made.

The day I turned my life around—did a full 360—I thought we’d rise together. I believed it would be the start of something better, not the slow unraveling of everything we built.

I still remember your words. The way you condemned married women who hid friendships with men behind their husband’s backs. The way you looked down on divorced women who chased attention—from men, from screens, from strangers. You spoke with such clarity then.

Now, I can't sleep. My mind replays moments over and over, trying to understand.

All I ever wanted was for the woman I loved to love me back the same way. I never disrespected you. Never made you feel unwanted or unloved. Never tried to make you jealous, never played games, never gave you a reason to doubt me.

This—writing—is all I have left. I spill my thoughts on pages, trying to make sense of what happened. But no matter how many words I write, only you can make it make sense.

Make it make sense.
