Fighting with your partner? Totally normal. Arguments? They happen. But what isn’t normal? Being with someone who makes you feel worthless.
Ever had a breakup so bad it feels like it drains the life out of you? You can’t sleep, can’t eat, can’t even go out. Life becomes a struggle. It’s not living—it’s barely surviving. This phase? It can last for ages. The deeper the love, the deeper the hurt.
And yes, it’s hard. I promise you, it’s like walking through fire. You start to realize how much your life changes in ways you never expected. You adapt to the pain, willingly or not. Once your heart is broken, it’s never quite the same again.
As one chapter closes, you find yourself transforming. Over time, you trust people a bit less. You start thinking with your head, finally! And when someone new comes along? You’re not the same person you once were. You’ve grown. Now, it’s all about you.
Even in a relationship, you know when it’s time to go if things aren’t right. You know what you deserve, and you’ll never settle for less. This is the silver lining of loving someone who didn’t love you back. When you walk away, you’re actually walking toward yourself.
Your gut tells you, “This isn’t the man who’ll make me happy.” And that’s it. No more trying to change him. He is who he is. So you leave the table—and don’t look back. Because if we want to survive, we have to put ourselves first. No one else is coming to save us.
