When emotions run high, and our feelings get tense and confused, we get caught up in the moment. We get caught in the what-ifs, finding faults in ourselves, and trying to compensate for the hole we get in our hearts. Heartbreak is a tricky emotion to explain because everyone feels it differently. However, I believe that every heartbroken person out there deserves to hear these three extremely important things, no matter how differently we express our emotions.

Timing is a b*tch. She really is.

Our young adult years are so strange. We are trying to find ourselves and prepare for our future and possibly trying to balance a relationship on top of the heap and we're expected to be able to give all of ourselves while spreading our time and energy so, so thin. Not too many people want to stop their lives or hit the pause button, and that's okay. It happens. But it really freaking sucks to be on the other side of that. We are so quick to blame ourselves, when in reality it's not even our fault. Whether the timing will ever be perfect is hard to predict, but I wholeheartedly believe that better timing will come along when ready.

Two people that are meant to be together will be together eventually. Either as lovers or as friends.

A tricky statement, but one I believe in. I try to observe the interactions of those around me, and I have continued to stand by this. I've stated it multiple times, but I think it's really comforting to remember that the one you lost could be entirely temporary. You can grow up without growing apart, and eventually, the two lost hearts will find each other once again, once the timing is right.

You are not insignificant, and you love perfectly.

Ending a relationship that really breaks your heart makes you ask yourself so many questions. "Did I say 'I love you' enough?", "Was I good enough for them?", "What did I do wrong?" all too often run through our heads. We automatically blame ourselves for what happened when most of the time, it was a circumstance completely out of our control. Like I mentioned, our young adult years are so, so strange and things have the capability to change so quickly. These crazy changes have huge ripple effects and we tend to feel them in our relationships the most. We have to remember that. We can't be so quick to blame ourselves or the other person.

We all love differently, we all feel pain differently, and we all move on differently. No one way is better than another, and no relationship ever doesn't work out exactly how we want it to. Sometimes it takes a bump in the road or a little time apart to make us realize how important we are, and how important it is to never give up on love or on ourselves, for that matter.
