Hi there, Happy travels
21
when you’re trying to move on it’s difficult. it’s hard to not be reminded of him when you drive past his street or hear his favourite song. it’s hard not to be hurt when you see him kissing someone else on the street corner you used to meet up at. it’s so hard to be left still caring, with the memories of your love haunting you and taking up every part of your thoughts. but you don’t need to forget the good times to move on. you don’t need to forget who he was and how real your love was at the time. you just need to separate the special memories and the love you feel for him from the person he is now. because here’s the thing, he is not the same person you had all those good times with. he’s not the same person who promised you that he’d never leave, that told you that he loved you with his whole heart and meant it. he changed. and that’s okay. people change and there’s nothing you can do about it other than accept it. you can miss the person he used to be and you can cherish the memories you made together and the relationship you had but you have to understand that there won’t be any more good times with him and that he is no longer the person you loved. once you can accept that the person you love is gone and isn’t coming back then it hurts a little bit less and it makes it a bit easier to move on. when you see her with him just know she’s not with the person you invested your heart in, that person is gone. so please, separate the relationship, the love you have for it and the memories you made from the person he is now and let them be for the person he was. mourn the loss of him but do not wish for him back, because he’s already gone anyway.
he is not the same person you fell in love with, let him go.
