I made a girl cry and its killing me every day
As the title says, I made the girl I was dating cry, unintentionally. We are not dating anymore, but it still is killing me inside. I phase out every day sometimes even tear up picturing her face after I said those words.
For context, I met this girl, around 3 months ago and we hit it off right away. She has past trauma and a sickness which I am not disclosing. I kissed her knowing she has that sickness, my first kiss. She was very open to me about it from the start, I was fine with it actually. I still wanted to date her, I didn't want some sickness to stop us from getting together. Well, it's easy to think this way but can be very taunting to go through with sometimes. She initially didn't want to date me, due to her trainer, though she liked me. But she herself suggested us dating. First date was amazing though we were technically already dating as friends.
The second date, we were cuddling and I was telling her how much I like her, maybe even love her. After 5-6 hrs of cuddling and playing around, I uttered some stupid words. I said "I want a normal life and I want kids", which I meant, and I didn't think her sickness would be stop us from having it either. I meant it in a way that I just want a chill and family oriented life, but she took it the wrong way and that I was implying something about her sickness. She teared up right away and didn't cry in front of me. But I know she cried after getting home.
I feel awful, she trusted me and chose me against all the odds, and said I would understand her. I am a fucking piece of shit, for breaking her trust. I feel less of a man for making a girl cry. Giving her so much hope and breaking it just in our second date, though I totally didn't mean it and would have spent the rest of my life with her condition happily.
I told her what my words trule meant, but it was too late, damage was already dealt and there is no taking back. We didn't break up over that, we lasted for 1.5 more months, but I knew it was over once those words came out of my mouth. I miss her and there is no way I can have her.
I am a shitty person. I will never ever break the heart of someone close to me.
