You are really great, it’s just that we can’t go back.

Sometimes I really hope that I’ll meet the right person a little later! That way, when we’re both mature enough, we’ll never break up for no reason again.

That year you were 28 and I was 25. Your family was pressuring you to go on blind dates and get married, while I, at 25, was just starting out in life, hadn’t achieved anything in my career, and didn’t want to be tied down by marriage so soon. So we broke up, ending our three-year relationship.

If meeting someone you feel like you’ve known them forever is the same as meeting an old friend instantly.

So, the mutual hatred upon meeting was a sign of deep affection but shallow fate.

It was the wrong time to meet the right person.

It’s destined that you’ll miss out on some good people.

For example—you!

You are really great, but we can never go back…

I don’t understand why two people who are so compatible on a spiritual level always end up not being together. Perhaps without the right timing and circumstances, even the right people can’t make a difference?

I really liked the movie we watched on our first date, and I often watched it repeatedly on quiet nights. Watching movies used to be your hobby, but now it’s become my habit.

Perhaps it’s because movies always seem to bring missed connections back together; the protagonists in movies not only love, but they also have the patience to wait. No matter how arduous their experiences, they eventually fall in love again. But life isn’t a movie!

In movies, people who leave can come back. Missed opportunities can be made up for. But in real life, we can’t spend a long time waiting for someone uncertain! Once we’ve gone down different paths, even with regrets, it’s very difficult to get back… It’s too difficult!

I finally understand now that the order in which people appear in our lives is very important. If the timing is wrong, even if it’s love at first sight, a passionate romance, or even if you meet the right person, so what?

You were never meant to be my flower; I just happened to pass by your bloom.

I don’t know when it happened, but suddenly I realized that things I used to care about so much suddenly didn’t seem so important anymore. They quietly faded away, catching me completely off guard. There was no right or wrong, no lingering judgment, just like white clouds drifting away without a trace, like rain falling silently. Although everything wasn’t as destined as it seemed, it all felt like the best arrangement.

You can only move forward, while I can only never look back! But I’ve always regretted not being able to tell you those words in person: You are wonderful! Really~ really~ really~ wonderful…
