No one escapes a breakup without a few scars. It doesn’t matter if you’re the one who called for the split or not. More than half of all partners who go through a breakup regret it. Severing a relationship is a painful process and uncomfortable for everyone involved. There’s no smooth way out, but we can move forward with self-respect and in a way that minimizes our regrets.
Yes, you’re going to second-guess yourself along the way. Yes, you’re going to cry and have days when you want to crawl into bed and disappear. But you can also wake up one day proud of how far you’ve come. You can stand on the threshold and look back at a relationship you’re proud you escaped from.
It all starts with your awareness and the way you want to move forward. Do you want to be moved by your misery? Or do you want to move through it? One comes with the grace…and the other? It leads down the same old path of breakup regrets we all know so well.
