ARIES: You give into temptation and text them.

“

I don’t want you to think of me every time you use the polaroid of my naked body as a bookmark.

“

ARIES: He’s the ex who hits you up whenever he’s drunk, lonely, or high.

“

The truth is, we really are a compilation of all the people we have ever loved, of all the people we have ever been seen and held by.

“

We all wonder about our exes, even if it is for a short period of time and how they feel about the break up regardless of who initiated it. Are they sad? Mad? Angry? Hurt? Happy?

“

The reason you guys broke up doesn’t have any lingering weight on you, it’s water under the bridge. 

“

I mostly stayed out of fear. When he would tell me I was a selfish bitch, I would believe him. If he didn’t love me, nobody would.

“

You don’t have to stay friends with your ex — but you can treat him with kindness.

“

Don’t give him another chance to hurt you.

Turn your life into something that you can be proud of. Turn yourself into someone that you can be proud of. Focus on the light that you bring to your own life. Focus on what makes your heart beat faster. On what makes your smile beam brighter.
