Laughing out loud in the face of people who don’t matter

So, you loved someone and lost. You try to win them back by all possible ways and means. You cry, you lie, you stalk and you put in way more effort in things that don’t matter anymore. You don’t stop for a second to think if THEY want you in their life.

Nope. You don’t.

You carry on and you continue being selfish because YOU want them back. But guess what, they are not going to come back.

Now let me hammer another teeny tiny thing into your head, hard. You don’t love them anymore. You’re just an obsessed human being who cares only about what you want and that’s not good, because my dear darling, they don’t want you and do not in the least bit care about you. Get over it. Shake yourself up and get moving ahead. Climb that goddamned ladder up.

There’s success waiting for you there, you stupider than stupid, dimwit. Not here.
