Hey.

I know it feels like you won’t ever be able to recover from this. I know it feels like some lose/lose moment.

Maybe you’re feeling like you’re making a huge mistake by moving on. Perhaps you feel like you don’t have it in you to make it to the next moment.

Let’s face it, this is worth than punch to the gut that you’ve ever received, and you’ve received a pretty good amount of punches to the abdomen.

I know you’re thinking that you won’t ever find someone that is going to be worth it. I know you’re feeling like an idiot because you told everybody that this would work out for the best.

You might even be thinking that you could fix things if you wanted to. You might be thinking that this is just a fight that you’re in. This feeling might be something that you settle in a few years or when you get older.

I’m here just to tell you that this is not the case.

This is not the end of your world.

This might be just the beginning that you needed.

You’re going to take so much with you from this, and you don’t even know it. This doesn’t mean you’re going to make any more mistakes, those are coming along the way, dude. Trust me.

You’re going to mess up pretty hard. You may even remember this moment and think that this was nothing. You’re going to feel punches to the gut that will feel ten times more than this exact moment. Not that this moment should be something that you don’t embrace. Feel this entire moment up. Please don’t shy away from it and try and act like everything is all better. That won’t heal anything.

The first break up isn’t the worse one, but it’s going to be the one you remember the most. Deal with it the least you can. Just embrace the suckiness of the moment. You’ll be okay, champ.
