I started this blog soon after the death of my beautiful 17-year-old son, Hayden, as a way to deal with my grief. I titled it "Dear Hayden" because at first I wrote as if I was writing to him. My use of the word "dear" ended up being twofold: "used as an affectionate or friendly form of address" and "regarded with deep affection; cherished by someone." Many posts are saved quotes, song lyrics, Bible verses, poems, etc. with credit given to the actual authors as much as possible. Enjoy~

Push him away
She didn't lose him, she had to let him go. She didn't get over him, she had to move on. She didn't lose feelings for him, she had to walk away. She didn't get bored of him, she had to do what was best for her. She didn't let him go, she had to push him away. She didn't forget about him, she had to cut him off. She didn't want things to end, she just did what's best for her. She didn't want to break up, she just couldn't handle it anymore. She didn't want to leave his life, she just needed time to herself. It just got to the point where she put herself first for once and she decided it was time for her and him to go their separate ways. It's not that she doesn't want to be with him anymore because she does, but it's just that things weren't the same anymore and no matter how long she waited for things to get better, no matter how hard she tried to make things work, it just wasn't happening. She just didn't want to be unhappy anymore. She'd run back to him in a heartbeat, but for now, she just needs to be on her own.
