It brings me teary eyes as I'm writing this post but what must be done to bring final closure must be done now. Today just happens to be my three months anniversary of being a single lady wohoo!
It's been a rather difficult journey for me the past three months because not a day went by without thoughts of him and our past. First month was absolute torture with memories flooding my brain like there was no tomorrow. The fact that it happened during summer didn't help either because when I couldn't keep myself busy, I thought about stupid shit. I'm just glad that my friends (real life and internet friends) helped me get through the first month. Thank you all for being there for me ^_^

This is my favourite picture of us. There won't be another picture like this again.
The second month got slightly better. When school started, I decided to take matter into my own hands. I made myself busy by getting a job, started blogging more regularly, hung out with new and old friends, and pretty much did anything that would take my mind off of things. I think it worked out quite well but I knew it would take just a bit more time for everything to settle down though.
Now that we're at the end of the third month, I think I'm ready. I'm ready to put it all behind me and move forward. I for one refuse to live in the past! I know the future awaits for me. This girl is ready to tackle whatever comes her way!
Helen gives her two thumbs up, meaning everything will be just fine. I want to share a quote that gave me strength when I felt weak: there's no greater power than the power to move on, to start over and leave it all behind. A broken heart is not the end of the world because what doesn't kill you will make you stronger.
On a final note, I must thank a girl for making all of this happen. I do not know who you are but thanks for bringing me all that excruciating pain. But you know what? I am now stronger than ever before all to you.
You go girl!! I know you're a strong woman, and I'm glad you feel able to move on now. You know we're all here to support you... :)

ReplyDeleteHey lovie! I'm glad to hear that you're doing better :D Being single isn't a bad thing. It gives you space to really think for yourself and you can be selfish without feeling the guilt. Haha.
ReplyDeleteMy advice, go out and have fun! Flirt all you want (but don't whore yourself out LoL). I'm glad that you're keeping busy. Otherwise, you would have still been very sad over your breakup.
I will update one of these days now that midterms are over. LoL. Lots of hugs!
Thanks for your comment Helen, you're very welcome *hugs back*
ReplyDeleteYou're right, I should make the first move, no one is going to do it in my place ^.^ -- you're giving me strenght, thank you!! And I know, starting a convo with a complete and total stranger isn't usually my style either... Thankfully I have the kind of face people like to talk to (sometimes those people are really weird and scary too o.O ) So maybe next time....
(why do I always keep saying this to myself -___-)
time heals all wounds :) happy to see a happy face and two thumbs up! you've got a great future ahead of you helen1 :D
