One day, you’re going to stop checking their profile. Not because you stopped caring overnight. But because you finally understood that checking on someone who chose to leave you was only keeping you stuck in a version of yourself that deserved better. You’ll stop wondering who they’re talking to. You’ll stop reading old messages. You’ll stop looking for hidden meanings in their posts. You’ll stop asking yourself “what did I do wrong?”. And then, slowly… you’ll realise something. You were never too much. You were just giving too much to someone who was giving you too little. You kept making excuses for them. You kept accepting the bare minimum. You kept telling yourself that maybe one day they would finally see your worth. But love shouldn’t feel like convincing someone to love you. The right person won’t make you question where you stand. They won’t disappear when things get difficult. They won’t make you feel like you have to compete for their attention. And I know it hurts right now. I know there are nights when you still wish they would text you. You still imagine what would happen if they came back. You still miss the person you thought they were. But sometimes… you don’t miss the person. You miss the version of them you created in your head. And that’s the hardest part to accept. So let them go. Not because they didn’t matter. But because you matter too. One day, you’ll meet someone who gives you the same love you’ve been giving everyone else. And when that happens… you’ll finally understand why people you had to lose were never meant to stay. Maybe losing them wasn’t the end of the story. Maybe it was the moment your real story finally began.
