When I Saw Her Again I Knew That It’s Over

  Hi, DJ Chloe!

  Para sa isang show na nagc-cater predominantly sa mga babaeng listeners, alam ko na medyo hindi na normal para sa isang lalake ang magpadala ng 3rd letter niya. Nakakahiya man, pero gusto ko lang magbigay ng update regarding my problem two years ago.

  By the way, for those who are not familiar, I am SP. The guy who got dumped last 2013 by his eight-year girlfriend who went to Dubai for work. I have already submitted two letters to you because I can’t seem to find a way to move on after the breakup. I won’t go into details on why we broke up (just assume that it’s my fault BUT for Christ’s sake, I didn’t cheat!), but after two years of waiting and hoping, I can now officially say that it’s already over.

  Yes. I met her last February 14. Nalaman ko late last year na nasa Pilipinas na siya ulit at may sariling business sa Makati. I pounced on the opportunity and hoped that finally we can have some sort of closure this time because she left me hanging. At first, ‘yung closure lang ang gusto ko, but deep inside, nandun pa rin ‘yung hope na sana maituloy ‘yung love story namin. Gusto ko pa ring magkabalikan kami ng first-and-only girlfriend ko.

  So I went to their church last Sunday, to the surprise of her relatives, dala-dala ‘yung mga remembrance namin. When the service ended, nagkita at nagkausap kami. Gusto kong maiyak nu’ng muli ko siyang makita, but when she approached me, she offered a handshake. I was actually expecting a hug or something since two years kaming hindi nagkita. But then, I realized na ibang tao na ang kausap ko.

  Walang kumustahan. Dinerecho niya ako na her decision still stands until to this very day and was firm with her decision na tapos na talaga kami. Dito ko lang din nalaman na meron na siyang boyfriend. Napamura ako sa isipan ko sa sobrang sakit. Alam kong babae siya, pero parang gusto ko siyang sampalin during that time. Two years akong naghintay. Two years kong pinilit na maging loyal sa alaala namin. Pero habang naghihintay pala ako meron na siyang iba. Hindi ko alam kung paano niya nagawang itapon ‘yung eight years namin nang ganun kadali dahil hanggang ngayon nagpupumilit pa rin akong mag-move on at hindi ko pa rin siya makalimutan. She hurried back to the church kasi may gagawin pa raw siya, pero before that, isinoli ko na ‘yung dala kong “memory chest” na naglalaman ng memories namin — all the way from 2003. I guess, it’s not really the Lord’s plan for me after all. I’ve prayed and waited for two years, but in the end, hindi rin talaga kami para sa isa’t isa.

  Today, I can say that that chapter of my life is now officially closed. Kailangang i-let go lahat ng sakit, panghihinayang at mga dating pangarap. It’s time to start anew.

  I just want to thank you, DJ Chloe and all of your listeners for following and giving your insights to my story. Pasensya na po at hindi happy ang naging ending pero at least marami akong natutunan. And as I prepare myself to become the best boyfriend (or husband, hindi pa huli ang lahat. 29 pa lang ako! Hahaha) to the woman that God has been preparing for me, I hope that one day, I can finally share a beautiful story to you all.

  More power to your show and God Bless!

  P.S. Baka nasa comments section lang ‘yung forever ko. Hahaha.

  Dear SP,

  What can I say? I hope the next letter will be a story of a new love or maybe a new adventure. I have said so much about your issue and I believe that’s enough. I am just hoping for your happiness. It’s good to know that you have finally accepted that sometimes we are bound to meet and love people but not meant to stay together. :)

  Sincerely,

  Chloe
