you know it’s really true in some cases that if you love someone you have to let them go. you and another person can love each other but if it’s toxic and ungiving, even if you don’t think of it as so, you have to release the connection.
you feel as if you have to hold on.. you have hopes it will turn out differently but holding onto that will just make it harder for you to make actual connections in the future. you can’t communicate your feelings? you can’t talk about simple things, you go time and time
again confused about the outcome of the relationship, you know you both care for eachother but you simply cannot communicate it. that lack of communication can become torment, it can turn into rage, anxiety, either you or the other person will hopefully let the relationship go
the hardest part is knowing you have to let go but hating the idea of a life without them... sometimes holding on to hopes and dreams will cost both of you. sometimes you have to be the bigger person and let them go even though you don’t want to.
once you finally cut the tie, it will be hard to move on. you can feel them being confused as you are confused, thinking did i make the right choice?? trust me you did. you knew that by holding onto what once was, was only prohibiting both of your own growth.
accepting that you both were simply did not fit together is hard but is needed to fully understand the choices made and the outcomes of the relationship.
if you know it’s not working, let them go. don’t go through the constant pain. go through the pain when it’s time to let it go instead of constantly putting you back in a situation where you want to let go but can’t and then going back
releasing that need of control is the only way to become a better version of yourself not only for you but for the ones you let go, and for the ones you never wanted to let go.
not only is releasing them a show of respect for yourself but it’s also respect for them.. you love them enough to hope they find someone that can be there the way you wanted to be there for them and hopefully in turn you’ll find someone who will be there the way you need also
