I stopped listening to it because I made the “mistake” of dedicating it to my then girlfriend. I had always wanted to dedicate the song to someone, it never crossed my mind that things would not end well. When we broke up I deleted the song from my playlist and regretfully stopped listening to it, the memories it was associated with were too painful.
Recently I am trying to reconnect with the song. The memories are still there, but now they are warm and bearable, melancholic but sweet.
Here’s mine.
And for the same reason. This was The Ex and my song. It was a toxic, on again off again, 4 years long thing from when I was 16 til I was 20. It used to be every time it came on I scrambled to skip it, especially if my wife was in the room. Now, I can listen to it if it comes on I just feel a little uncomfortable.
