Five months ago today, Thomas's girlfriend broke up with him. It was a very sweet and innocent relationship, and they had been together six months when she ended it due to lies by another girl. The fact that the girl wouldn't believe they were lies hurt him a great deal. Honesty is a very big thing in our house.
This evening was an event at the city pool. The young lady handed him all of the things he had given her. Things he had picked out just for her and spent his own money on. He was sad when he got home. I asked if he needed a hug, and he did. He said it made it fresh and made it hurt all over again. My heart hurt for him. I asked if he was going to give back the stuffed animal she had given him, and he said he wasn't. I don't blame him. We are all a little attached to the animal. I know he will have many more relationships, and there will probably be more hurts. I am also sure that he will break hearts as well. This though...well this just stinks today.
