    <content type="html">&lt;span style="font-size: larger;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing I do is ever going to be good enough. She has this pre-conceived notion that I am a completely different person than I used to be. We have had our differences, our fair share of bickering and wasted arguments. Five years together, the last two a downward spiral. Each of us gave our entire lives for the other. Each of us has screwed up and broken up with each other for someone else. She first, and then me. We both know how it feels yet I'm the one willing to look past it. She has everything she needs. She doesnt want a relationship. She has a billion and one friends, especially guys who are all madly in love with her. I used to be secure enough to handle it, although we were together at the time. My philosophy was always, well she comes home to me, is held and kissed by me etc etc...now its not so easy. Insecurity isnt a good thing, but I can only handle so many attempts by guys throwing themselves at her. Oh I will be your best friend, confidant blah blah fucking blah..they all have alterior motives and all of them want to be her next &amp;quot;one&amp;quot;. She is hotter than ever, while ive let myself go while trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. I think I may have finally decided upon something, and I feel ashamed to even discuss it with her. I just feel as though I would get laughed at, and have something thrown back in my face like &amp;quot;yeah, it is a nice thought but a bit unrealistic given your track record dont ya think&amp;quot;. It is shit like that, that I dont need right now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing I do is ever good enough. I provided for her basically as long as we have been together. I payed for our food, the places we lived. I worked the 55 hours a week. Now our roles have been reversed and I get bitched at. I can take it. I love being around her, but apparently I dont show it enough. I want to be with her, but apparently I havent proven it well enough. Everything anyone says to her, I have said it all before. But because it is new coming from someone else it gets taken to heart, where as if i say it, it is almost overlooked. She is beautiful, and she knows it. I tell her, and it seems like it doesnt even phase her. Someone else says it, rede or barrett and she basically blushes and gets all giddy. She makes me feel worthless when in reality this is the first time in my life that Ive actually done something encouraging. Im actually going to school and Im estatic about it. Yet I still feel like I cant even live up to her standards. Im apparently not as intelligent as her, and will amount to nothing. Im tired of being looked down upon. I am trying to improve myself, one thing at a time. I need encouragement not critisism. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want the girl that used to miss me. Not the girl that I stay up all night waiting to come home just so I can see her. I want the girl that used to actually kiss me in public, not the girl that rarely even does it when it is just us alone. I want the girl that didnt need anyone else, not the one who feels the need to constantly be texting someone. She wants the boy she fell in love with, and all i have to say is the window goes both ways. She is in the next room, sleeping..maybe..texting..probably...yet I still miss her. I hate feeling alone..not good enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>
