Why you should trust yourself after a breakup

Author

1. You don’t miss them. You miss what you hoped they would become
2. Starting over is scary but so is waking up 10 years later wishing you’d trusted yourself sooner
3. The relationship shouldn’t be on fire for you to get your needs met
4. I promise you, if you’ve been waiting for 5 years for them to change, another 5 years won’t do it
5. Don’t let the fear of loneliness keep you in a relationship where you already feel lonely
6. What’s not meant for you will disappoint you until you understand
7. Don’t talk yourself out of what you already know
8. The best dating hack is, “my husband/wife would never do this”

writing down the things i kept making excuses for, then reading them whenever i started doubting myself again.

that part about not talking yourself out of what you already know really got me. did you have a moment where you knew deep down it was time, but kept hoping you were wrong?

I know how you feel. I held on for months hoping I was wrong. but that feeling of knowing it wasn’t right never went away

i spent so long waiting for someone to become the person i needed that i forgot how lonely i already was.

sometimes you feel the most alone when you’re with someone who’s not right
