Everything you did in life revolved around considering this person’s thoughts, feelings and actions… and now suddenly you’re on your own with no need to do that anymore. So it’s disconcerting. It’s like a big chunk of you has been stripped away and you’re left bare and vulnerable.

“

You break it off with him and never hear back. You realize he was never worth it anyways, and you’re not all that sad. Somehow, this guy made you miss your ex the most.

“

Missing him does not mean that you still love him.

“

“I learned to code and I built my own website. I promise I wouldn’t have ever had time for that if I was still with her.”

“

When she breaks – she will keep it from you because she has learned that silence is her shield. She clings to her vulnerability behind a mask that annoys you in its dullness.

“

I wonder if it would matter if you knew you are part of the reason I am what I am today.
