Story: Let Go for Happy

This is a story of a woman and a man. They are both the same age, however have different interests, few in common. They've known each other for months, eventually tried to make a relationship. Sadly, it was not meant to be. The woman saw this, and wanted to let him go for another to be happy with. The man knew there was issues, different than what she was seeing, but didn't wish to give up on it.

The woman knew she could not make him happy as she had hoped. She noticed another woman had their eye on him, and she wanted that to happen. Him and the other woman, happy together. The man was ignorant to this, kept thinking the woman wanted to be his only, when it was the only way around. He also lived in fear of losing a friend.

Eventually, the man figured it out. He was only hurting himself by clinging to something that wasn't going to happen, and too blind to think it would. After all, the woman wanted to prevent that from all costs, even if it meant losing a friend.

They both had a chat, sad as it may had been, it was for the best for them both. The man still wished to remember her, that she was a smart woman, wanting to let go of a man for a woman that'll bring him more happiness than she possible could. The woman allowed that. He wished to stay in contact, not wanting to forget a good friend as she. The woman allowed that.

The woman was smart to let go, wanting him to be happy with another. The man once did this before, but forgotten. He had a crush on a girl years ago, but hardly had a chance to talk to her. He once lost sight of her for five years. Soon as he reconnected with her, he knew there was nothing between them after all. Discretely, he let go of her. Eventually, admitted he had a crush on her, but couldn't bring himself to admit it before; she acknowledged it as she had sense that years ago, but didn't want to push it. They're still friends.

To this day, this girl is married with two kids. While he may feel sad for having to let go of a crush he had for years, as long as she's happy, he's happy. It was, in deed, for the best for them both; just like the woman and the man. Still friends, but that is all.

Based on stories I heard from a friend.
