This is such a stupid post but I was scrolling on tiktok and the song unconditionally by Katy Perry came on. I haven't heard that song in like ages. It was put up slowed with sad music and suddenly the lyrics from the beginning really hit me. "Oh no, did I get too close? Oh, did I almost see what's really on the inside? All your insecurities. All the dirty laundry." For some reason I started to question if thats why he left. Because I got too close to figuring him out, who he really is under that tough flirty man act. Like he tried hard for nobody to see it (besides his wife) and I got way too close to it so in order to regulate it all he needed to cut me out......

did he ever let you see the vulnerable parts of him directly, or were you mostly piecing them together from the little moments when the mask slipped
some people leave because being fully seen scares them more than being loved, and i stopped trying to prove that every instinct i had was right.
i've had random songs pull up memories and questions i'd buried for months, and suddenly i'd be replaying everything wondering if i got closer to the truth than they were comfortable with.
