It's Supposed to Hurt



In my Facebook feed, I saw your Dr. Laura Says, "There is no shortcut to getting over a breakup.  We all have to go through the pain and grief."  Sorrow builds growth. No matter the situation: who broke up with whom, why the relationship deteriorated, or even who was at fault. At some point you loved; and therefore, it hurts. Let it. But don't allow the hurt to be confused. Take it in. Learn YOUR fault in the breakdown (we ALL have some accountability, even if minute). Take your lesson of your fault: trusting someone you knew wasn't trustworthy (red flags are actually are golden flags!!); you were too passive-too aggressive, or maybe both; they played you or you played them.

The list is long. Relationships are messy! Whatever it may be. Feelings were involved and in the end, you hurt. Take what is yours and build for the next go round. Give yourself grace... Hurt, hurts. It takes time! Longer for some than others. Trust your gut, it knows!! Keri
