breakups

When it comes to breakups, pain is inevitable, but Humans thinks that suffering is optional.

Eight: What Could Have Been.
It could have been eight years today. It should have been. Circumstances didn't permit it, and now you're gone, and I'm alone. I've been wallowing in my own self-pity since the last time you closed my car door.

This Is What My Husband's Friend Said to Him After our Marriage
We’ve been married for almost 2 years now but have known each other since 4. And I must tell you, the 2 years I’ve known him from far were entirely different. However, living with a person is just another journey of ‘getting to know each other on a different level’.

Let's Breakdown the Stages of A Breakup, Shall We?
Even in the worst relationship, there is always one person who initiates the breakup. That person has had it enough and they want out. Regardless of how long you spent with this person and how they treated you, the one who initiates the breakup is the Dumper, and the other one left confused is called the Dumpee. It is like you could have been husband and wife, but sometimes life sucks, so you became dumper and dumpee.

I need some space.
This isn’t an article about what to do when your partner says they need some space. In this situation, there is only one thing to be said. ‘Okay, I understand.’ You keep it cool, calm and collected. You can read all about, how you should handle it like a pro on the internet. They’ll all tell you to be understanding and take this time as an opportunity to be with yourself.

Escape You
I don't know where to begin. I am speechless on a deep level, terrified to say the truth. But this has never stopped me before. I do not love another. I just want to be alone. I don't know where to begin, if I should, but something fears the silence in me, like a primal instinct driving me from a predator.

Narcissistic People Are Parasites
The title above “Narcissistic People Are Parasites” is not meant to be a verbal insult against narcissists. But instead an objective observational comment. Narcissists are in every sense of the word what you would call…a parasite. And empaths are the hosts.

Unspoken Feelings
So this is what it is like being in a relationship with a busy man, that has a lot going on? I’m so used to having a man rely on me and just being up under me, I never knew what being in a relationship with a busy man was like. It is such ..a lonely existence. Unless it is just him, and he doesn’t like being around me.. I know a lot of busy men who are in relationships and they make time for their girl.. Or is it just me? Am I not enough for him? Or maybe he just doesn’t like being with me.. It just doesn’t make sense to me, because why waste your time being with me, when you could be with someone who fits your dynamic well, who doesn’t have to beg for your time.. Who begs for time? I don’t ask for much..
