I was sitting on the floor this morning, waking up slowly

And realizing I used to wait for things to get really bad before ending a relationship.

Seeing all of the hints and just ignoring them.

Finally, I don't do that anymore.

I'm not good or gentle at it yet, but I can end it before it gets really bad.

I don't just hold on with hope that someday the person making me miserable will magically make me happy.

They won't.

And I am perfectly capable of making myself happy.
