Being in love is one of the greatest feelings in the world. It makes you feel like you can conquer the world. Unfortunately, not all relationships last even when you want them to. Sometimes breakups are needed and are unavoidable.
The saddest breakup of all though is when you watch your relationship deteriorate right in front of you and there’s nothing you can do.
This situation is so tough. You try and try to make things work and sometimes they just don’t. You can feel yourself losing contact with the person. You know what’s happening and you just have to let it play out because you’ve done everything you possibly can. You try to make amends but it’s just too late. You don’t want to be the one to break things off because you really don’t want to lose this person. You push and push to try and make things work, but nothing works.
You know all too well what is happening and you can’t avoid the inevitable. Maybe it’s not your time with this person or maybe your time has come to an end. You can’t hold on to someone who’s already gone. That's the reality of it and it hurts. It sucks actually. Sometimes this feels like the hardest pain in your life. You truly believe that you and this person are meant to be together and sometimes that just isn't reciprocated.
You think about all the firsts and how great everything was and how things used to be. Things change and so do feelings and it's hard when you still feel all these things and your partner doesn't. It happens though. People fall out of love and you can't do anything to make them love you again. And that's just how it is sometimes.
To the people who are going through this, I understand your pain. I know things are dark now and you don’t think they’ll get any better, but they do. I promise you. Don’t give up on finding your light and doing things that make you happy. Surround yourself with people who love and care about you.
Things will be so messy for a while, but you will find your way back to you and you will come out of this stronger. Keep on keeping on.
