Okay so I have a random question, let’s say you in this person break up but you still love and care about them so much and you still want to be with them even though they hurt you but at the same time you just want them to find someone to make them happy even though it hurts you but you just want them happy, is that normal? 🥺

      Yes. Letting go of people is hard. You may find one day that you were in love of the idea of that person, instead of who they really were. Getting over it is just as hard though! I'm glad you let go! People who hurt you only continue to do so until you leave. Big hugs

        @GracefulKim I agree! It is so hard getting over someone you love so much, but I tried so hard to learn everything about who he was and his personality and his interest, but when we broke up I seen a different side of him that I never knew he had, it breaks me because I don’t understand how I can still care so much when I tried to change myself to be better for him but I ended up getting hurt so much, but I’ve been trying so hard to focus on myself and find out who I am but I feel like I’m afraid of finding someone new 😔

          @Shelbsz it sounds he was miserable because he didn't feel comfortable being himself around you. Remember that every single person as all sides to them. Focusing on yourself and living life is a great way to find out who you are!! Don't over analyse though 😉 learn what moves you and what doesn't, examine it and see if you want to stay that way. Most of all forgive yourself.

      It's absolutely normal, because it means you're comfortable with that person due to having such a close relationship. You also think to yourself you probably won't find anyone better or deserve whatever they did. But something I had to realize myself, in relationships like that, they don't really love you. No matter how much you want to believe it or they say they do, they don't. Love isn't abusive in any way, shape or form. It's a hard pill to swallow, and took me years to realize myself. I think it helps to heal knowing that though.

        @Hazel420 I definitely agree with you, it hurts though because I feel I changed a lot about myself to fit his perspectives, I tried to be there whenever he needed me, but then I lost both of my Grandpas back in March and me and him broke up in May, and he told me he was done with my emotions getting in the way when I was grieving two loses at once but I still care about him so much, and I was told I shouldn’t look back on things but I felt like I was the only one trying to talk and have conversations but sometimes I question myself how come I care about someone so much that never cared about me and it hurts because it’s hard to move on and how come I still care so much about him? 🥺
