i think it’s so important to realise that you can love someone but accept that they aren’t good for you / your mental health. i think it’s important that we can acknowledge that maybe we won’t get over them, not for a long time at least, but that we’re better off without them in the long-run. i think the most important thing is to eventually understand that no matter how much you love, care and respect someone, it won’t make them love, care and respect you back. please, if there is someone in your life that doesn’t make you feel loved, wanted or cared-for, leave them. i know it’s easier said than done, but nothing and nobody is worth more than your own happiness. put yourself first for once. all that matters is that YOU are happy.
