day 60 no reaching out, no re reading old messages no looking at old photos. technically no contact, I ran into him 2x on accident, kept it short & no eye contact. even though after both times, my heart felt like day 1 all over again, I manage to not reach out. he even texted & called me the day after we ran into each other and I didn’t answer as bad as I wanted too. I’m proud but still sad. the silent sadness, longing for him hits me at least once a day.

when that once-a-day wave hits, what does it usually sound like in your head? is it missing him, or missing how you felt when things were good
it’s a little of both. I do miss him, more so as a friend. but then sometimes I miss the comfort and love as well.
you’re doing something really hard, even on the days it still hurts
i hit day 70 once and thought i’d be floating, but nope. ran into my ex at a grocery store and my chest did that drop, like DAY ONE all over again i didn’t reach out either, and i was proud but also just… hollow. that quiet longing is brutal because no one sees it, but it’s there every damn day.
👏🏻🤍keep going don't give up .. sadness comes in waves but remeber why u start this
