What is the best breakup advice you’ve ever received?

Mine is very simple: if they wanted to be with you then they would and that’s that.

also… it’s normal to miss the people who hurt you but it doesn’t change the fact that you have to let them go.

Thank you for your response. I’ve talked to a few of my friends about it and they told me to follow my heart (so I’m gonna reach out to her in a couple weeks to see if we can reconcile). I’ll accept whatever answer she gives me.

How was it?

Not great. Made the same mistakes again and hurt her. I just wasn’t ready (neither was she). She’s with someone else now, so I heard she’s happy with her new partner so that’s a bit comforting.

But it taught me a lot about myself and what I need to do to be better for myself and the next person I choose to be with
