This post contains some of the best quotes about the end of a relationship.
The end of relationships is never easy.
Even though we know that it’s probably for the best, we still hurt and find it struggle to move on.
This is grief. And grief is never about the logic.
It is important to allow yourself to hurt and feel sad before you can make the transition.
One thing you want to keep in mind is that you won’t always feel this way.
Every day, it’ll get a little lighter, until one day, you’ll wake up and it won’t hurt anymore.
