unreciprocated love

Just because you miss them, doesn’t mean you should to go back to them. It’s okay to feel the weight of their absence, to remember the good times and wish things could have been different. Missing someone doesn’t mean you made the wrong choice. It means you’re human. You loved, but don’t confuse missing them with needing them. Sometimes the heart remembers what the mind has already let go of. It tricks you into thinking that because you miss them, you should run back. But think about why you left in the first place. Were you happy? Were you growing? Or were you just surviving? The truth is, missing someone is a part of moving on. It’s your heart adjusting to the space they left behind. But that space isn’t meant to be filled with them again. It’s meant to be filled with you. Your peace, your growth. It’s okay to miss them, just don’t mistake that for a reason to go back.
