But I don't need you anymore.

My gender identity?
I am male, certainly.
Gay also, if that counts.

those are two very powerful sentences. Wants and Needs are constantly fighting in the human consciousness, so having loved but no longer needing love is a very strong statement with a powerful force behind it.

I love gay guys. I'm sorry -_-" Probably not a great way to start a comment. But it's true!
This is absolutely beautiful.
It's so sad, but so strong. I love that. And, in so few words, it says a lot. Which was the point of my contest.
It's wording is perfect. Just great.
Awesome work.
Thank you so much for taking the time for my contest, and I love your quote. I wish you the best of luck!

Thanks!
But I'm sorry I made you cry...

This is so touching, it really makes me want to cry. (Which doesn't happen often so you can feel proud)
It makes me think of how we all can overcome things and how we learn to survive by ourselves. And how we have to survive by ourselves, because when it comes down to it, not even those we love are always there for us.
Me loves this.

I agree.
That's why I do the best I can to be a rock, a shoulder, what have you.

Oh, I see well good job!!!

I needed and loved you once but now we're no more, thats how I would've wrote it but I liked this to and it does say why, kind of. But good job!

Thanks
I considered some, ah...flowery ways of putting this, but my message deserves a to-the-point delivery, since I can never be direct to his face...
