Why i feel relieved after he unfollowed me

Author

I feel like it is truly over between us. Today he unfollowed me on insta and I found out from my friend that he got back to his home country. He will not reach out and I shouldn’t wait for him. The unfollow feels like a relief though. Finally, I have no hope for our future and feel like I should move on. Its almost like I don’t want this version of him back. I miss the old one.

i kept hoping would come back wasn't the person standing in front of me anymore. once i stopped chasing the memories, moving on got a little easier.

This was a hard day for me too- realising he was gone and he didn’t care what was going on with me- didn’t want to watch my stories or see what I’ve been up to online. I must say though, something peaceful started growing when I didn’t check my phone for every notification anymore because he wasn’t on my socials. It’s hard, every day it’s hard, but the urgency I felt and the desperation to see glimpses of his life without me is mostly gone now. I miss him and I love him, but I don’t spend every minute praying for an instagram or facebook notification anymore.

you think you're grieving the relationship now, or are you grieving the future you thought the two of you were going to have?

the day i realized i wasn't waiting for a text anymore, i cried harder than i had in weeks. i didn't miss who they were at the end, i missed the person i fell in love with.
