Or just block them and take a piss on their name

Handmaidssnail

[@934648,Nanori] 😂..I can't do either

Handmaidssnail

[@1185249,Coldplay] sometimes it's for the best

Coldplay · 56-60, M

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail] true. But still.........

Handmaidssnail

[@519030,Notanymore] You got that right ..and by forgiving we can heal

Notanymore · 36-40, M

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail] sometimes I forget myself

Handmaidssnail

[@519030,Notanymore] That's okay we all need these reminders ..and so do I

Handmaidssnail

[@37745,redsauce] yes it is painful ..but through pain we learn and grow

redsauce · F

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail] why do we have to go through pain to learn and grow? have u ever wonder that

Handmaidssnail

[@37745,redsauce] Pain has a purpose that's why

Accept was is, without a doubt. I prefer to close fully down, and distance won't be of essence thereafter, eventually.

Handmaidssnail

[@414209,SapphicHeart] I do shut down but my heart never does

SapphicHeart · F

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail]
No matter what, they're always going to be a part of the heart, they once held it in their hands.

Handmaidssnail

[@414209,SapphicHeart] ugh...yeah

Or make them a distant memory and move on so you can experience something nice with somebody worth it.

Handmaidssnail

[@11509,Keepitsimple] of course ..that's the goal ,isnt it ..

Keepitsimple · 51-55, F

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail] Pretty much. You’re in or out. Not gonna play head games. Life is too short.

Handmaidssnail

[@11509,Keepitsimple] you are correct

PerfectionOfTheHeart · 41-45, F

Definitely. Letting go can be extremely difficult, but there’s only so much you can do and so much time, energy, and attention you can devote to a person before it’s made clear that you have to start focusing on the quality of your own path…even if that means they’re not supposed to walk with you on it.

Handmaidssnail

[@436944,PerfectionOfTheHeart] exactly !..

ZenPearl · F

Sometimes you're so used to loving a person, it's out of habit, and you don't realize that. You have to decide to step away, and focus on yourself, and it eventually gets easier.

Handmaidssnail

[@674752,ZenPearl] yes of course..it just takes time

ZenPearl · F

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail] Exactly.

Ambroseguy80 · 51-55, M

Sounds good on paper, but it’s usually more complicated than that.

Handmaidssnail

[@403045,Ambroseguy80] no it shouldn't. Unfortunately, other factors do ...

Ambroseguy80 · 51-55, M

[@1207913,Handmaidssnail] I’m sorry…. Complications do abound in relationships. Would be nice to keep things simple.

Handmaidssnail

[@403045,Ambroseguy80] it would be ,that's just not how it goes sometimes
