There are times in our lives when we encounter failures — not just once, but in waves.
One disappointment after another.
You try, you fall. You rise, you fail again.
To the world, you start looking like a loser.
And worst of all, you start believing it yourself.
You question everything — your worth, your purpose, your future.
You start to feel like maybe you’re not the man you thought you were.
And in those moments, when your soul is heavy and your heart is tired — the people you expected to stand by you are nowhere to be found.
Especially her.
The one you thought would be your peace.
The one you believed would say, “Don’t worry, we’ll figure it out.”
The one you imagined would hold your hand when your confidence was slipping through your fingers.
But she’s not there.
She’s gone quiet.
Or she left.
Or she’s suddenly too “busy.”
She disappears when your value isn’t obvious — when your crown is missing and your hands are dirty from digging through life.
And it hits you — she wasn’t in love with you, she was in love with your potential, your status, your future success.
She wanted the finished product, not the man in process.
She admired the dream, not the journey.
And now that you're walking through the dark, she doesn't want to be seen beside you.
That’s when something breaks inside you — and then something else hardens.
You realize you’re alone in this.
You realize nobody’s coming to save you.
And so… you save yourself.
You stop waiting for loyalty.
You stop hoping for support.
You build — from pain, from silence, from grit.
And when you rise again — because you will —
You carry the scars with pride.
But you also carry a new wisdom:
The ones who don’t show up for your storm don’t deserve to dance in your sunshine.
Let her stay gone.
Let her support the next man.
You’ve already learned to be enough.
Not because you wanted to…
But because life taught you the hard way:
Your struggle reveals who’s real — and who was only there for the glow.
