right person/wrong time

The timing of this is LITERALLY a personal attack. Well played.

I don't think I could go through this five more times

“Under the circumstances you did your best, and I’m proud of you” thanks now I’m crying

If I had the chance to go back and do it all again knowing this was how it was going to end. I would do it in a heartbeat, just for the chance to be with you again.

Everyone says it, but it really is interesting how perfect his timing is.

Whoever is reading this, do not share this video with them. They won't suddenly change their mind, it is better like this. Stop hurting yourself, please. Give it some time, there are better days ahead now that you've gotten to know yourself better. Also please remind me that I said this, cause I'm gonna need to read it a couple times this month

When this video came out I was freshly heartbroken. It was my first relationship. it wasn't very long but it felt extremely meaningful and I was very attached. The breakup came at a great surprise. This video felt extremely personal, but it really felt like I was never going to get better. Its been 4 months and I just had my "thursday morning 6 months from now" moment. To anyone else that's grieving the loss of a relationship, I say let yourself feel this grief, express it, but do so with knowledge that in the end you will survive, you will grow, and you will love again

watching this video every day because it makes me cry. it just hurts so much. but also, i’m so proud of myself. for really truly loving someone, for finally letting myself be vulnerable again, and for being everything that person could want in a partner. i tried so hard, cared so much, and did my absolute best to show someone how much they mean to me. i truly did my best. is a relationship what they need in their life right now? no. am i in pain every day? yes, but after losing my best friend to heroin in 2016, i hadn’t had a single close relationship with another person, platonic or romantic. i have a lot of healing and work to do, but i finally feel worthy of love again, and i finally feel like i actually deserve the work it takes to get better. it’s going to suck, it’s going to hurt, and it’s going to take a long time, but i don’t think i’m fundamentally broken anymore, and i do finally think i deserve to heal. thank you for this video :)

I think the crushing feeling of inadequacy hurts the most when someone slowly pulls away then eventually cuts you off when they feel good enough to do it. You didn’t get the chance to pre adjust while they did. It’s hard, but the feeling of getting over them and moving on is really lifting. Might take months and years but eventually everything is ok :)

What fucks me up is I didn’t even have them in the first place and it still hurt like hell when they left

Today is that day for me, she was exactly that person, everything started off end ended just like you described. Rather than bargaining and begging her to take me back, I put everything aside, thanked her for all the good memories and told she will be in my good graces forever. Told her I probably won’t ever be reaching out to her because it will just hurt me and deepen my pain. At least for the time being. Hugged and kissed her for one last time, left her place. Cried my eyes out during the drive home, literally still sobbing. I appreciate every moment good and bad that I had the opportunity to experience with you, D. Thank you. This video, it is a masterpiece manifesting the reality that human beings live through same harsh realities. Felt it in my core, thank you too, Sisyphus.

as someone at the end "acceptance" phase, I've started to cry a lot more, not out of desire or due to the ache that will always be there, but out of the contentment of having experienced them in the first place.

Damn, the timing. 5 year relationship ended a month ish ago, thought we’d be forever, we were perfect for each other. Every day we laughed more, so much so our neighbours wondered how. We always thought it sad that others did have that in their relationships. But that’s all gone now. My friends and family have said I’ve come a long way in such a short space of time. Instead of standing still, I dove head first into reflection, introspection and therapy. Unpicking and healthily processing and externalising every thought. It’s helped a huge amount, and has given me a clear mind in handling it all and made sure I learned from any mistakes whilst it was all fresh, otherwise it’s disrespectful to what once was. But the pain is something I can’t rid myself of, it’s just there. Pays a visit randomly for a day. Resets me to zero. And then I start again with renewed vigour and appreciation, gratitude for what was and what still can be. I hate it and wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I can only hope I find that love, vulnerability, goofiness and happiness again with someone. It’s a lot to hope.

"The important thing is that you tried, you were on this earth to connect under the circumstances you did your best" yuppp that hits beyond different

Stop looking. You are who you’ve looking for. I, myself, tend to fill other people’s cups up constantly but treat my own cup irresponsibly. Then I was told “treat yourself like someone you loved”. You are the one who can truly make you happy. You’re already enough. We all see flaws in our reflection, but you’re perfect the way you’ve been made. You are worth it. Love you like someone you loved.

“This exact situation will happen to you five more times before you die,” is one of the most dreadful and beautiful concepts I have ever heard. Thank you. 🖤

This hit me like a brick. Two years with the only person that has loved me for who I was and the last week without them felt like I was dead.

What I found pretty hard, before the acceptance, is to let go of the melancholia and nostalgic memories of them, as it’s probably the last powerful emotion and connection I’ll feel towards them. Letting go of the melancholia felt like letting go of the relationship, though it has been such a happy one, and I still struggle to let go. Take care out there, and call your friends.

7 years now she’s a stranger with amazing memories we had , happy she found someone (: I hope nothing but the best for her
