Honestly, who would I choose in my next life?😮
Haiss… Back in August 2024, both of them used to be my favourites.
When I had already fallen for one of them ( Jethro ) and decided to date him, someone from my past ( Amos) came back.
Amos had been my crush since July 2022, but I stopped caring about him a few months after he got a gf.
Looking back now, maybe I wouldn’t have chosen either of them.
One played with my feelings, and the other’s personality didn’t match mine.
It’s funny how both of them followed me almost at the same time.
One on Aug 15 2024, the other on Aug 16.
I remember wondering how it would be if they ever interacted, since they were from different schools and were my favourites.
In the end, I chose Amos because it was easier to communicate with him.
Unfortunately, he broke up with me shortly after.
Fortunately, someone saved me when I needed help the most.
To be surprised , it was Jethro.
Jethro was the one who saved me from the pain caused by Amos. ( Since I couldn't move on from Amos at all )
He gave me the hope I was searching for when I was in complete darkness.
And ironically, Jethro even stalked Amos's Instagram account.
But in the end, both disappeared without a trace.
Jethro had done his part.
He saved me, then vanished in the thin air.
Amos cheated on me… and disappeared too.
Now, I don’t even know how my heart truly feels.
I didn’t have strong feelings for Jethro, but a small part of me still regrets not choosing him back then.
Yet at the same time, I know our personalities could never have worked out.
Gosh… why am I living in such a cruel world? 💔

Reflecting on my experience choosing between two significant people in my life, I realized how complicated matters of the heart can truly be. Sometimes, the one who is more communicative like Amos seems easier to connect with, yet that doesn’t guarantee happiness if trust issues arise. In my case, Amos cheating and disappearing left me feeling devastated and confused about my own emotions. Interestingly, Jethro, although not my first pick and a personality mismatch, ended up being a surprising source of comfort after Amos left. He was there at my darkest moment, providing hope and support when I couldn’t move on. I found it quite ironic that Jethro even stalked Amos’s Instagram, which showed his own way of dealing with the situation. From this painful chapter, I learned a few important truths. First, sometimes the right person isn’t obvious immediately, and time or circumstances reveal more about their true character. Second, emotional healing can come from unexpected places and people, even those who initially seemed incompatible. Moreover, the timing of both Jethro and Amos following me on social media almost simultaneously felt like fate playing a confusing game. It made me wonder about the what-ifs and the idea of destiny in relationships. Although both eventually disappeared from my life, each played a distinct role in shaping my understanding of love, boundaries, and self-respect. For anyone facing similar dilemmas—torn between attractive options with flaws—my advice is to listen closely to your feelings, consider whether communication and trust exist, and don’t rush to settle out of loneliness or convenience. Healing after heartbreak requires time, patience, and sometimes solitude to really discover what your heart truly desires. This journey also reminded me that life can be unfair and cruel, yet with every ending, there lies potential for new beginnings. Keeping hope alive and learning from past experiences can help us grow stronger emotionally, preparing us for healthier and more compatible relationships in the future.
