The most painful thing isn't the separation itself, but the heartlessness that follows. The most time-consuming and futile thing in the world is to endlessly wonder what the person who left you was thinking. What's the point of trying to figure out someone who can't bring you happiness?

It's not him that you can't let go of. It's the fact that you were once so close to happiness. It's precisely because you can't let go of that happiness that you must keep moving forward.

Who doesn't have doubts along the way? But those who ultimately find happiness do so because they never give up on themselves. Your goal is happiness, not him.

You will continue to strive forward. You will do your best for yourself. Breaking off contact with him is your biggest step forward.
