Holdit2gather Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 It's okay to let someone you love go. I was with someone for nearly 3 years, I spent 1 year of those 3 years getting to know them inside and out, I'm not going to lie she was literally my best friend. Where I went she went, whenever she was sad, mad, depressed, happy I could tell, I knew her like the back of my hand. She's 20 im 24 so I knew with the age different she was going to want to see what out in the world and she did. A year ago she told me she didn't know what she wanted anymore but I knew she had someone else in mind. I just looked at her and said "I've been there, your young, you got your whole life in front of you, go spread your wings. If it's real you'll fly back if not just know I enjoyed the time I spent with you." Was I hurt yes I was but did I mope over it no. I had mixed emotions but I knew this was for the best. After the break up my life did kind of go down hill, lost the love of my life, lost my job, I was dead broke. I spent about the next 3 months of the break up questioning life like why am I losing everything at once then I looked in the mirror and said this is where become who I should of been a long time ago. A month later I got a better job, a new car, and went out and had fun with my life making new friends, going new places. My ex rebounded with a guy 2 weeks after our break up, that stung but aye I told her to spread her wings. She did block me on every social media. There was LC between us she did all the reaching out, but I notice everytime she reached out it was to complain about her bf, I had to grab myself again and say don't give into her shhh she wanted to live life let her so I went hardcore NC it's been 5 months of NC. (She now has unblocked on every social media, she tried to follow me but I denied it). It's been a year since the break up and im 110% happy. All I know from what I hear about my ex she is drugged out every minute, drinking living the crazy lifestyle. I'm happy I came out a better person then I thought I would be. If most people just let go and enjoy life you never know where it'll take you 7
bluefeather Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 It takes a lot to have that mindset, especially near the beginning of the breakup. Respect. 2

I'm happy I came out a better person then I thought I would be. It sounds like you respect people in general. But what you had/have for her does not sound like true love. If my child blocks me from her life and goes out to find her own life. I will be hurt. But if she gets in trouble in life or gets lost, I will feel really sorry. I will find her and offer her the help she needs. For other people I have loved, I don't feel happy seeing or knowing they are suffering, not even those people who hurt me. I may not be in a position to help, but I will hope they find a way out of misery. Edited January 9, 2017 by PeachBlossom 1
