Everyone has their own love story to tell; in a way, perhaps all love stories are the same. Some love story is less than perfect. Some will remember the entire story until the end of their lives. No one can really erase memories, no matter how hard you might try. Perhaps, one day, when life sees you as a bitter old woman or man, you will have memories to look back on—memories of a nine-year love—which was lost in the sands of time.
After spending nine years of your life with the same man since day one, will you still have the guts to say goodbye and forget about everything that had happened for the past nine years? Some people might say that nine years of relationship is something that cannot be easily forgotten, especially with the fact that you’ve had a lot of crazy adventures together. But for some reasons, the long years of your relationship can’t even assure you that you’d be together forever in the end.
Take this couple’s story for example. While others welcomed 2018 with love and pure happiness, there’s this couple who celebrated New Year with a heartache as they decided to end their relationship after nine years of being together. In two separate Facebook posts, the man, Brian Estores, and the woman, Angel Lobido, shared their heartbreaking messages with each other.
On Angel Lobido’s post, she claimed that her lengthy post will serve as an appreciation, yearend, and a farewell post to her childhood sweetheart, Brian Estores. According to her, their nine-year relationship is one of the best things that happened in her life and for that, he played a huge role in her entire life, including her family’s life. On the same post, she thanked Brian for all the sacrifices and for the unconditional love.
Before she ended her post, she told her former partner that “Someday everything will make perfect sense.” And in the end, she asked Paul (Brian) to move on and enjoy his life. “Move on and enjoy your life for we are still young! Well as I always say, you always have a special place in me. I will forever be your BADA and you will forever be my POYPOY” she wrote
Meanwhile, Brian or Paul Estores, also wrote a message for his former partner wherein he thanked her for all the love. The post of Brian Estores expressed nothing but pain and frustration. He wrote, “For whatever reason, you saw it best for me not to be a part of your future. I couldn’t have given you the world, my love, but, I swear I would have made you feel like the only person in it.” Brian continued by saying that their relationship might have ended, but he’d forever be grateful for the best years of his life with her. “I lived – while you loved me. Let’s focus on making the best out of what life has given to us. I have to let you go. Wow – that was the hardest line to type. Goodbye, beautiful. Don’t forget about me”
This couple’s letter to each other on New Year’s Eve broke the netizens’ hearts. Imagine, they handled the pain of letting go of the person who stayed by their side for nine years. As of this writing, the combined posts of the couple has already garnered a total of 30k reactions, 23k shares and more than a hundred comments from people in social media.
Love can be so fickle, and time so often makes or breaks a relationship. Sometimes we guess time was not really on everyone’s side. People realize that they are not getting any younger, and they both found themselves at a crossroads in their lives. In the end, they found that they had to make a painful decision.
Breakups are heart-wrenching and are never easy. We cannot say that they have fully moved on with their lives, as the pain is still new. As they write those posts, memories—both the good and the bad—fill their mind. Their romance wasn’t exactly a whirlwind; it took time, which they had both invested.
