do you think the pressure comes more from them moving on… or from you feeling stuck?

both to be honest

running away to a new relationship doesn't help you get over it, you're just busy with someone new at that moment - sooner or later everything will catch up with you

what usually helps me is reminding myself that rushing out of pain never actually gets me out of it. it just buries it. take your time, even if they’re sprinting ahead. your heart isn’t on a stopwatch.

It's a common thing to think will help and maybe for some it does, but personally it made me feel lonelier and sadder. I think it's best to take time to focus on yourself

when my ex moved on in like… two weeks, i swore something inside me snapped. i kept telling myself “if he can do it, i should too,” but all it did was make me feel worse. it does heal, it just doesn’t heal on their timeline.
