Too Late to Say I Love You 🥺💔
Lisa and Dan worked at the same office. For two years, they were close friends.
Dan was always there for Lisa:
- Bringing her coffee on hard mornings
- Listening to her problems after bad dates
- Making her laugh when she felt down
- Being her plus-one at boring work events
Lisa loved having Dan around. He was safe, comfortable, and always reliable.
Then suddenly, Dan changed.
He stopped coming by her desk to chat. His usual "good morning" texts disappeared. At office parties, he'd make excuses and leave early. When Lisa asked to hang out, he was always "busy."
At first, Lisa felt relieved. She had more time to date other guys. No more feeling guilty when Dan waited around while she talked about her crushes.
Months passed. Lisa went on many dates, but no one felt right. They weren't funny like Dan. They didn't remember how she liked her coffee. They didn't make her feel... safe.
One day, Lisa saw Dan laughing with the new girl from Marketing. They looked close. Too close.
"Dan and Emma are so cute together," her coworker Rachel said. "He was hung up on someone else for ages, but Emma finally got him to move on."
Lisa felt like someone punched her in the stomach. Dan had feelings for someone? Who?
Then it hit her. All those times he was there for her. The way he looked at her when she talked. How he slowly pulled away...
It was her. Dan had been in love with her.
Lisa realized something else too - she loved him back. She always had. She just didn't see it until he was gone.
Now, Lisa watches Dan and Emma together. She sees Dan smile the way he used to smile at her. She hears about their weekend plans. Their vacation together. Their engagement.
Every time, it hurts a little more.
Sometimes we don't realize what we have until it's gone. And sometimes, by the time we figure out our hearts, it's already too late.
Lisa learned the hard way: love doesn't wait forever.
The End 💔
