Its A New Day

Move on; everyone says that's what you should do, but no one tells you how to do it. Where are you supposed to go?

After weeks of endless time to reflect on all of my failed relationships, I realized that I went into each of them with the wrong mindset. Everyone's looking for love, but do we ever stop to think about to kind of love we want?

I guess that's what you are supposed to do while you are "Moving On". Everyday is a new day; another chance to discover who you are. Once you figure that out, you will know the kind of love you want and more importantly need.

Breaking up can be LONG to do

When you genuinely love someone, you are selfless in all of your dealings with them. Your joint goal initially appears to build a house of love that will last forever.

A few months into the relationship after your first conflict you learn the truth about your union, good or bad. The problem is that most of us ignore the bad truth that this fire exposes. The choice that you make in this moment will determine how you and your partner will interact with each other. Make the wrong choice and you will find yourself in an endless cycle of disappointment, and you have no one to blame but yourself because you ignored the truth. Make the right choice and you may end up with a good friend and ally for life.

So my advice to all is to acknowledge the truth no matter how ugly it is, and if you have to let someone go that you thought was going to be your lover for life; do it, because breaking up can be long to do!
