Letting something go

Today I realized I been fooling myself and I have to let this person go. I got attached my mind was making me believe all sorts about them. It sadly wasn't the case or healthy for me.
I have to move on and I've realizef what is important. Whatever happens in my current situation they are not going to rescue me. I need to rescue myself from the hurt I feel.

I need to put to bed whatever I felt for them. It wasn't real.

They have shown me I mean nothing and it's painful but need to move on.

Another door closes and a new chapter.

Anyone feeling like this right now?

Loads of people...often hard to move on, like we're subjects in a nature documentary, instinctively needing to stick with a mate for the sake of the species!
Ditch the biology preprogramming, enjoy being a free-thinking, liberated, self-determining person - start right now!

Yes exactly the same today, I went back to my bf at the weekend and he has now hurt me more than ever. I know he's not right for me I just can't bear to go through the heartbreak again, lots of love to you x

I am glad they are cold towards me now I see them for what they are.

But after asking what my story on a social site was about. It's like they know deep down it's about them.
I feel so stupid got wrapped up in some fantasy.
I do feel hurt but don't know why as I hurt myself. Getting close to someone I shouldn't have.
Moving on is best..

Yes. It’s horrible while you’re going through it, I remember it well.

You just have to learn useful lessons: take care of yourself, know that you don’t deserve bad treatment but also that it doesn’t matter if someone you liked didn’t value you. Their opinion is no longer important to you. You have to love and respect yourself. So work on your self-esteem if it’s been flattened.

Flowers to remind you better times are ahead if you let go of past sadness.
