I hope this video reaches everyone who needs it, because you just gave such amazing advice about break ups and letting go of someone! I can confidently say I have done all the things I shouldn't have done, and suffered greatly for it. I am only just now coming to a place of acceptance, which hasn't been easy, but time and distance does help. I am working through the last 2 points you made here - I miss the idea of him more, because the person who showed up never actually showed up to his full capabilities, but my overly optimistic mind filled in the gaps and made him out to be so much better than he actually was. I am also intentionally treating this situation as the death of a dream, which is painful and requires grief work. I held off on this for a while because I thought I was being dramatic to think of it as something needing to be grieved, but I see now how necessary it is. Thank you so much for this amazingly helpful video!
The interesting thing about nostalgia is that it appears to us without the emotions of the actual event. This reminiscing can often distort our view of reality - Which can make getting over breakups really challenging sometimes. I love that you did all of the wrong things because these are the spaces where we really learn and grow the most. Keep doing the work and showing yourself all the love you deserve! 🤘💕
