What do you have to do for him to see you standing right before his eyes. When there is hope anything is possible. We hold on to the chance that there is a slight possibility that he will notice us. You always have his back, you're the quick drive over when he needs you. You think sooner or later he'll realize you are everything that he needed, but he never sees you standing right in front of him.
You start to wonder am i not good enough? Should i wear lipstick? Get a new hair cut? Go to the gym more? Holding on like this hurts, it stresses you out. You can't wait around forever for him, but you don't know what to say or do to make him come around.
He'll be sorry when he realizes you are no longer there. He will realize that you were everything he needed and everything he wants. When you give up on being second best, when you stop waiting around, he's gonna wish he had you. Sometimes the best way to get some body's attention is to stop giving them yours. When he realizes what he had with you is gone, he might finally realize all that you have done for him, and realize how happy you made him.
