How do you let go after a breakup?

Sometimes it's just a matter of facing and accepting reality. No fantasy nothing but it's not easy especially with the memories and potential in our heads but reality

i had to stop checking their socials and stop looking for little signs that they might come back. giving

i kept waiting for one day where i’d suddenly stop missing him, but healing for me was more like choosing myself every day even when i still wanted him

i still miss them sometimes, so i’m curious, what’s the hardest part for you right now, missing them or accepting that it’s over?

missing them

i drowned myself with friends and family and other people who love me. i didn’t drown myself in work because that is just covering the hurt up. finding other joys filled me up. in moments that i felt sad or like i needed him i journaled and also went through an album of screen shots of things he said to me that were mean. i also made a list of all the things i could remember that he did that hurt me. Im not over it completely but i certainly don’t urge to text him or miss him anymore after i remind myself all the time why he hurt me.
