What happens when you let her go? A question that I'm taking a wild guess probably ponders through the minds of many when a relationship ends. What happens afterwards? How does it feel from a female's aspect? What is her outlook on life from here on out?
People tend to think that once a relationship is over, it's over for good. That because there isn't a label plastered onto your faces anymore, therefore it's over and done with. But do people really understand what she feels like after the breakup? Does it make her weaker, or does she power through it and gain a sense of strength within herself? From my own experiences, I have come to realize that every relationship one has within their lifetime, makes them one step closer to finding the perfect match. You learn what you want and what is essential for your own happiness. So, to my ex, here's what happened to me at least when you let me go.
For starters, I learned to NOT stop caring for you as a person. I loved you from the start, and I'll always have a spot in my heart for you. Just because things are over, and have been over for a good amount of time now, doesn't necessarily mean that I'll just give up on caring about you. Your health, your happiness and how you do in life is important to me. Obviously, I want to know that things are positive because that only brings the biggest smile to my face. So, what happens when you let her go? The care and the love doesn't just disappear. There are still times that you cross her mind. Although, she knows there are other fish in the sea and that this ship has sailed once and for all.
I also learned to put myself first and foremost. I used to put you before everyone else in my life including my own being. It was crucial to me that you were doing okay 100 percent of the time. And, although I still want you to be okay, it is finally time to focus on myself. So, what happens when you let her go? She focuses on herself in order to better her life and make herself out to be the shining star that she truly is.
Sometimes the exchange of conversation between us wasn't the healthiest and I would go against my own morals and values just so we would be on good terms. I didn't seem to pay attention to what would in the end, make me feel happy and content with life. But, really, It's time for me to stick up for myself when I need to. Just like you do, I deserve happiness, love, affection and much more.
Over the years, what has become pretty apparent to me is that whatever respect and effort one gives, they deserve unconditionally in response. Sadly, that hasn't been my experience. The two way street way of life become a one way and I felt as if the effort I was putting in was barely recognized. So, what happens when you let her go? She realizes that there is someone out there for her that will treat her like a princess, the right way and provide unconditional love and support.
And, as Ernie Harwell once said, "It's time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I'd much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure."
