Dear Alec,
Writing this letter is harder than I'd expected and I expected it to be easier than telling you face to face.
I'm not sure how to start saying the things that I want to tell you. The way you make me feel now is very different then when we'd first started dating. Never did I question how you'd gone about winning my heart, but now every time I think of you I can't stop the question from popping into my head.
I can't believe I'm about to say this but you actually scare me now. The way you act and the things you say are simply different from the guy I fell for. We used to be happy and truly in love. Now it seems like it's all an act.
You treat me like a queen when we go out, wanna show everyone what our loves about. All wrapped up in me whenever there is a crowd but when no ones around.
There's no kindness in your eyes. The way you look at me it's just not right and I can tell what's going on this time, there's a stranger in my life. You're not the person that I once knew, are you scared to let them know it's you? If they could only see you like I do, then they would see a stranger too.
Nobody believes me when I tell them that you're out of your mind, nobody believes me when I tell them that there's so much to hide.
Did I ever do anything that was this cruel to you? Did I ever make you wonder who was standing in the room? You made yourself look perfect in every way, so when this goes down I'm the one who will be blamed; your plan is working so you can just walk away.
It's such a long way back from this place that we were at and when I think of all the time I've wasted trying to figure out what I'd done wrong I could cry.
I've always loved you and I think I always will but I can't go on like this any longer. That's why I've left and leaving you to tell our friends and family why it is that I left you when our life was so perfect.
The day you started looking and treating me like a stranger is the day that you became the stranger.
Max
