The Ex Factor

Everyone has a past relationship.. Everyone of us has cherished our past relationships...

I had my first serious relationship in school(i was 15 then),when all my insecurities came to a head. My ex-boyfriend had to juggle multiple roles, from therapist to cheerleader to babysitter.
The whole relationship revolved around holding me up. I realized this soon after it ended—that I spent eight years expecting someone else to love me when I didn’t love myself. Long after I let go of the man, feelings about the relationship held me back. I was afraid of being vulnerable. I was afraid of being hurt. But mostly I was afraid of hurting someone else again and having to live with that...

Letting go doesn't mean giving up... it means moving on. It is one of the hardest things a person can do. Starting at birth, we grasp on to anything we can get our hands on, and hold on as if we will cease to exist when we let go. We feel that letting go is giving up, quitting, and that as we all know is cowardly. But as we grow older we are forced to change our way of thinking. We are forced to realize that letting go means accepting things that cannot be. It means maturing and moving on, no matter how hard you have to fight yourself to do so.

N i am happy i let him go, i am happy i found myself,and i realized letting him go made me know what kind of person i wanted in my life. and now i am happy to have what i wanted ...
