I loved my boyfriend PC, we were inseparable, but we had our occasional fights like any other couple. He wasn't perfect of course but our relationship accelerated to a point where he simply drove me off the wall and I just wanted to hit him so hard at times! I know, not a good sign... It's like I couldn't stand him anymore. He would throw fits out of the blue and literally refuse to listen to me, as if he had turned deaf?! Then, the next day we would forget all about the previous night and go on like nothing had ever happened. That's when ''trouble'' came knocking at my door...
One day, I was shopping downtown with my best friend, and then across the room that's when I noticed MAC for the first time. It was love at first sight. Yes, and it felt just like in the movies - when time seems to freeze and we are just staring in each other's eyes, our gaze locked on each other as if there was no one else in the room...
Back to PC, our relationship was unfortunately not improving. PC was a very serious kind of guy, and what can I say, the excitement was slowly evaporating. Moreover, whenever we started to argue, he chose that time to become consumed in trying to fix all sorts of "problems'', ones I knew could be avoided in the first place if he wasn't so stubborn sometimes! My friends started hinting me that maybe we simply weren't meant to be together, but I wasn't ready to leave him. Slowly, our relationship just continued to deteriorate. I wasn't completely unhappy, but ever since I had laid eyes on MAC, everything changed. I felt like he had turned my whole life upside down and I found myself thinking about him day and night, and obsessing about him! It was like this for about a year. PC and I tried to work things out, but inside I kept questioning everything: Did I truly love PC and want to be with him? Was he too consumed with his own issues to even notice my own needs and my dissatisfaction? Was I falling in love or in lust with MAC? Did I even have a shot with him? Or was it a phase I would eventually outgrow? But deep down, I knew things weren't going to last between PC and I and that it would only be a matter of time. And as timed passed by, the more irresistible MAC became to me.
Then, one dark, rainy fall night, I found the courage and confronted PC. I was honest with him and told him I didn't think things were going to work out between us anymore. He asked me if there was someone else. I didn't lie, I said yes that there was another pretender and that I thought he could make me happier and would be more fit to respond to my needs (I know what you're thinking, ouch, a bit harsh!). PC wasn't happy but there was nothing he could do or say that would change my mind at that point, my mind was set. I left, grabbed my coat and jumped into a cab. It was pouring rain and we were jammed in traffic. Suddenly filled with a sense of urgency, I asked the cab driver to pull over and I started wondering in the street, suddenly hoping to find MAC. And just like that, there he was. My heart stopped as I recognized him from a distance. He was standing tall and looked towards me. As I walked towards him, I couldn't help noticing the warm smile on his lips and how dazzling he looked. I was filled up with a strange feeling that he had always been there waiting for me. At this moment, I knew I was ready for him and I started wishing that this would be the beginning of a long and loving relationship.
Indeed it was. MAC and I have been together for almost a year now and I am truly amazed at how quickly we've connected but it just seems to work! MAC is very attentive to my needs and I feel a sense of peace when I'm with him; worry-free. Indeed, things are smooth and easy between us and I feel like he understands me, as if he reads me sometimes. We seem to share that special bond of complicity and of trust, and believe it or not, I feel like perhaps we were meant to be! When I look back at PC, I remember how so serious he was all the time. So caught up in his own affairs, it just created too many fights, conflicts, and frustrations between us that I could handle. I believe today we simply weren't compatible. MAC is different: he's attractive, cool, easy going, creative, smart, outgoing, and quite the technology-buff. MAC seems to always know how to put a smile on my face and he's made me happy in ways that PC never did.
Today, PC and I don't speak anymore except on those rare occasions when we see each other through our common friends. I admit breaking up with him wasn't easy since we were together for so long, but when I look back, I have no regrets. I know I made the right decision. I'm in love with MAC and I know I can trust him and always count on him. Though I don't consider ever going back together, I hope PC and I can still be friends. But my one true love is MAC, from Apple.
