Endings-Getting closure

life is now neon signage

Personally, I was a strong believer in closure and desired it. After a breakup, I feel that telling someone the truth about why you’re breaking up with them is the best thing to do, because closure is vital in helping the Other move on, but this isn’t always the case.

When it comes to emotions, as humans we have feelings that are similar, especially when people intentionally hurt us, we want vengeance, we want them to feel the pain we’ve felt.
However, how can you find closure when there is no harm done and a breakup occurs? This is where our feelings differ.

What hurts is when something beautiful comes to an end and we don’t want to let go. As a result of how we feel, we sometimes convert that wonderful experience into something negative.

Human emotions are fickle, and even if someone says they want to spend the rest of their lives with you today, their feelings may alter as a result of circumstances.

People grow out of relationships; it’s a fact of life. Why prolong your misery and that of the other? The idea is to obtain as much joy as possible from each relationship, then honor the memories and move on to the next life lesson.

Others enter our lives to teach us; some stay, some leave; everyone has their own tasks to complete and people to look after; they may leave to fulfill their own life purpose, they may leave to find themselves, and they may or may not include us in that journey or even give us a reason for leaving.

So I’ve concluded that telling the truth about the breakup doesn’t make the pain go away; everyone’s emotions are processed differently, and some people can handle the truth while others would prefer not hear it.
