I've always been the type to say "listen to your heart" .. "give out second chances because you never know what can happen." But if I've realized anything so far it's that the older you get, the less those thoughts hold true. When you're young you think, well he may not be perfect but I can't get him out of my head. I need him. I want him. It's not like were getting married! Young love is always the careless type of love. But as we get older these ideals change. We can't just give up everything to be happy because we have the rest of our lives. No one ever wants to plan for years ahead, and though were still young, our values tend to change. To take a chance on someone we know isn't the best fit for us is simply time wasted. It's hard to let go of your past and those who meant so much to you at one point in time, but sometimes you need to let go in order to find someone that's truly compatible. At this point we should get what we deserve and not settle for less. So now I say, be strong. Don't resort to the old just to get that feeling back.
As amazing as the past may have been to you, there's a reason why it didn't work out. You know deep down its not what you need. You can do better.
A breakup is never easy, and it takes a while to find new and a true connection. You can't put a time on love or any of the stuff that comes along with it. Be open to opportunities and see where it takes you.
You deserve the best. To be truly, genuinely happy. Not just in the moment happy. Never turn away a good thing, time tells all.
