Feel it. The pain. Anger, sadness, confusion, relief, resentment, hate. Feel it all. Then let it go.
Listen to sad songs and watch sad movies. On repeat if necessary, until the words lose all meaning. Until they are just words.
Cry. A lot. As much as you need to.
No matter how much time you spend analysing what you said and did, it will not change the fact it’s now over. Your time is better spent on things other than heartbreak.
Stay away from Tinder and all that other shite. It may seem like a good distraction but the dickheads and fuckboys will make you miss him even more.
Do something drastic if you want. If it will make you feel better. Just don’t do something permanent.
You’re going to feel sad. For how long I don’t know. But I do know it’s not forever.
If this is not your first heartbreak I want you to remember the last time. When you felt like you wouldn’t survive that feeling. And look, you did. And you will again.
If this is your first heartbreak I want you to know that almost every other person who has walked this earth has felt the way you feel right now.
If you had plans together, do them anyway. With someone else or by yourself.
If you didn’t have plans make some. Make lots of plans. Keep busy.
You will hope they change their mind. That they’ll realise their mistake. Most likely this will not happen. Maybe it will. You can’t put your life on hold for maybe.
Sometimes love isn’t happily ever after. Sometimes it’s being unselfish and allowing them to be happy. Even if it means being happy without you.
When your phone beeps your heart will race thinking it’s them. Disappointed when it’s not. Annoyed everytime it keeps beeping. Just think, those beeps are from people who want to talk to you. Who care about you. Stop giving thought to those who don’t.
Finally, most importantly, it all comes down to this. You can not find happiness in someone else if you don’t feel it in yourself.
The same goes for loving someone else.
