Life changes. You lose love. You lose friends. You lose pieces of yourself that you never imagined would be gone. And then, without you even realizing it, these pieces come back. New love enters.
Better friends come along. And a stronger, wise you is staring back in the mirror.
Then you begin to glow differently when you have good people with good intentions in your life.
As you grow older you'll realize that being with someone who motivates you to do better in life is the goal. A good relationship (friendship or romantically) doesn't envy the progress of a lover or friend. It's more about inspiring each other to become better versions of yourselves day in and day out.
So if someone's behavior make you second-guess your worth or relevance in their life, don't wait and make excuse for them. Your mind may not be ready to accept it, but it's the only way you can save yourself from heartbreak and disappointment.
Detaching isn't coldness - it's a protective response. It's the moment your inner wisdom recognizes that the relationship can continue only at a distance that feels safe.
Life is short. You deserve to be happy now, not later.
