It is true that love has no rules, and that, without a doubt, everyone should live their life as they see fit.
Now, in my view of things, that thing about one nail pulling out another nail doesn't always work, in fact, it's a lottery. Why?... Because the emotional wounds and broken bones left by love duels need time and space for reflection, to review what happened, what failed, what was done well at the level of the relationship, and based on that, after a while, open up to love, avoiding at all costs repeating patterns with the new partner.
Regaining your confidence, your passions and dreams, is part of what it means to heal your self-esteem. Do things that make you feel alive and shake off complexes and insecurities.
A broken heart heals when you become your own love, when you get up, get out of that grief and say to yourself: "I can and deserve to be happy, alone or accompanied!"
So that thing of looking for in others what we do not give ourselves, look, no, the thing is not like that. First get to know yourself, accept yourself, rebuild yourself for yourself, understand your worth as a person, and believe me, a new love will become present.
There is nothing wrong with it, it costs and it is difficult because society has instilled in us that after the age of 60 you should already have your life resolved but they do not tell us at what cost that ... my brother Carlos is 63 years old, he comes from two failed relationships, a job that he no longer liked, and from acquiring material things that in the end are as empty as banal, house, car, luxuries, and some money but to live, but to live "bitter" with people next to him that he does not want and that's why one day, in December 2018 I leave all that and in a small suitcase packed his life and he started, not from scratch, but with more calm and peace in his soul, in another country.
There are times when you say, ”Yes, this time."And then... you catch yourself repeating the same novel.
Sometimes it's not the couple, it's not the job, it's not the city.It's not the other one!. When from the connection the purpose is born, and from the purpose the clarity to act. Nothing flows without connection.
That's the beginning of choosing differently.
It's not love if it's you who always insists. If it's always you who wants to talk. Who wants to fix.
Who does everything and more to save something that the other does not even try to hold. See?
I've lost count of the times I've said in my posts here on Hive that love, if it's not reciprocal, IS NOT LOVE.
Many times we fall into relationships in which we are the only ones really committed. We are the only ones who think, feel, question and want to grow. The other one is right there. And what do you think he's or she is doing? well, taking up space. Has it happened to you?
