Sometimes You Have to let People Go

1–2 minutes

I have often found myself in situations where I wasn’t treated well, or someone’s behavior or attitude was impacting my mental well being. In those instances, I have had to let them go for my own good.

My ex has been my best friend for a long time, so we remained friends after we broke up, but lately he has been making me sad and lonely. Yesterday, he said his life would be easier if I didn’t still love him, so I said my goodbyes and am letting him have an easier life because realistically, my life will be easier without him in it as well.

It will be hard to be without him, but it is for the best. My friend says she is proud of me for knowing my worth and leaving his bad attitude behind. I’m proud of me too. It’s always good when you can stand up for yourself.
