Benefit of doubt

You got this. As much as you want to be sad and heartbroken, you still got this. It’s okay.

He went away — Maybe he wasn’t ready for you, for your strength, for your conviction. Or maybe he didn’t want to lose you eventually and that’s why he didn’t want you, not now, not ever. He thought of the inevitable and backed off. You love him and that’s good. You are capable of love.

Close that door now; you must. Open a window looking elsewhere and breathe.

Find a distraction — it’s hard obviously and there isn’t anything more interesting than wallowing in this void. Giving yourself some solace and to these unrequited feelings, the benefit of doubt.
