  • Left Head Kick from Middle Class UsaGreat song just heard it this year. I’m not a country fan but this song rang home for me.

    I was in a relationship with a woman for seven years, very intense. She is a beautiful woman, looks 10 years younger. They all start out great don’t they?

    I’m not a doctor but it turns out she had either borderline personality or BPD traits that controlled her life. Unfortunately she was molested as a child by family members. Got into a abusive relationship/ marriage with this guy and he used to beat her up et Cetera. Then I come along.

    I feel a lot of empathy for her, a lot of desire to be with her, to try to protect her.

    But her anger issues, the insecurities, the years of being treated like s--t cannot be erased. That coupled with my stubbornness, not wanting to be married, not wanting children led to problems down the line We ended up fighting a lot more than usual and she was saying hurtful things.

    She said some stuff to me that Ill never forget and led me to changing my phone number.

    She told me onetime last year during an argument, “if you were a real man you would’ve let me go two years ago.”

    Fine lady, you’ve got it. I’m history and my number is now changed!

    I hope you’re happy now.

    But I think about her every day. Funny how I miss the old days. Not really funny I just miss the old days before things got complicated. When I was her knight in shining armor. When I could do no wrong. When we were so into each other and I couldn’t wait to be with her. And then things slowly, started to change. How I wish for the days of old. I miss them very much.

    I guess that’s life, and life goes on.
