It consistently feels like, due to the constant "circumstances", that no one is meant for you. And you just need to keep letting everyone go?

Don't Break Even,

 

I'm not too sure what your question is, but yes, we can only control our own behaviour. We can't control external circumstances.

I guess it's less of a question and more of just a frustration. I want to practice the art of letting go of things not meant for me. Of the "gift of goodbye", if you will, but I am starting to feel like that's all I ever have to do is say goodbye. And it's taken a lot out of me

Learn to enjoy the process more than the outcome, and be willing to self-examine and make changes in the areas you know you need to. Also, accept the things that can't be changed.

It's hard to let go...very hard. But I believe if something(relationship) is meant to be it will happen. If not, nothing you can do will help.

I guess that if you've got a lot of negative around you which needs to be let go, it's going to be a lot harder. Perhaps keep your focus on the future and what your life will be like without these influenced.

I hate to be a downer here, but no one is meant for you, or for anyone for that matter. We get what we step up and ask for. Rejection, unworkable circumstances, whatever the problem(s) might be, are something everyone faces. Sure it's disappointing, and sometimes it hurts, but that's just the way things are. The difference is in what you do about it.

 

Successful people, accept it for what it is, put it behind them, no matter how hard it is to do so, and keep looking. And this is not just about relationships...

Because letting go of someone who is not right for you, is a lot better than trying to make a relationship happen. It's a very lonely row to hoe. Being alone is better than feeling lonely and unfulfilled with someone. 2 can be the loneliest number . . .

 

The fact is that there are more people who are not right for you and you need to accept that. It's just part of the process.
