Shall I Move on Too?

in #love7 years ago (edited)

Just when you thought everything is perfect, but not.

As they say, true love is being unconditional and selfless. It is seeing your significant other happy that makes you happy and stay in love and inspired. It is about doing what is best for them, in all ways.

Sometimes, there are relationships in which one gives more than the other. Not because he/she is forced but that person willingly do amazing things to make the person he/she loves, feel special.

This creates attachment to the both of you, one being the selfless giver of affection and care and the other, being the muse of love as well as giver of affection, love and care.

But sometimes just when things went very well, there also comes a day that you need to say goodbye. It is not because you had the wrong love for each other. It is not because you hated each other. It is just sometimes, life is very playful and circumstances won’t allow us with the current relationship we have, the one we thought would last forever.

At the start of the relationship, who would have thought this relationship would end too soon? Yes, it’s been so long yet feels so short, because you enjoyed.

“Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity. - Henry van Dyke”

You both did rejoice, that’s why it felt so short.

But when things fall apart and don’t go as expected and as circumstances do not allow, when is the right time to move on from the forbidden eternity?

Is it too soon? Or will it be too late? Will it be disrespectful if one moves on first? Am I too selfish about this? We often find ourselves confuse to these.

When you love that person so much, all you think is for him/her to be happy, with/without you. When you move on, you’re doing a favor for the both of you. You are moving on not for yourself alone but for the both of you. You are doing what is best for the both of you. This is one step, yet the hardest. This is easier said but hard to be done. But you will not fully free yourself from hurt if you won’t take this one step.

It is never too selfish. It is loving yourself once again when the other person can’t show you love and affection than they used to. It is finding yourself once again and this time, in the arms of someone new. It is about putting the past in your best memory for being a part of you and turning the next pages of your book of life.

It is not the end and never be the last best feeling you will have. But it is hard now. It is and it will be. The hurt will be gone, not too soon but eventually.

Thank you for reading.
