A breakup isn't a failure; for most, it's the inevitable outcome after trying. Every breakup isn't an accident. The signs were there all along.

You didn't just begin to grieve after the breakup; you felt lonely long before. You don't have to turn love into hate to force yourself to walk away.

You don't have to leave the relationship with a scar to commemorate it. Every encounter has its reason. Every separation ultimately has meaning. That person wasn't the one. Now that you have tried, you can walk away peacefully. You longed for peace of mind, for understanding. You yearned for mutuality, for support and understanding.

Now you know. That's the feeling you truly desire. That's the happiness you seek.
