Why the only way out is through heartbreak

Author

i think that no matter how hard someone try to explain to you to not feel it or ignore it or that time heals... the only way out is through.
you had to be there
you had to cry
you had to feel the pain
you had to take the rejection
you had to feel disappointed
you had fo feel disinterest
you had to see what love is not to finally know what love is

i used to think healing meant getting rid of the pain, but for me it meant letting myself have the days where i missed him, cried, felt rejected, and still kept going. that's where i slowly learned what i actually wanted love to feel like.

you had to see what love is not, do you feel like that experience changed what you'd accept from someone now?

i spent so long trying to skip the ugly parts of heartbreak, and eventually realized i had to actually feel the grief instead of rushing past it. some pain really does have to be lived through.
