Let it go & Move on

Unfortunately, not every relationship is a beautiful one. Sometimes we end up with the wrong person who does more harm than good. Losing someone is a very painful experience, but leaving someone who exerts a negative effect on you, who makes you doubt yourself, who treats you like crap is the bravest thing to do.It is difficult to be an optimist when we lose someone, the pain, and the void accompanies us but, it's better to destroy a relationship than to self-destruct. So, if you have chosen to lose a person instead of losing yourself then congratulations!

“Don't let toxic people infect you with the fear of giving and receiving one of the most powerful forces in this world... LOVE!”― Yvonne Pierre, The Day My Soul Cried: A Memoir

Even when we know that the person is toxic and will bring nothing but harm to us, letting go can still be difficult. If someone has been around you for a long time or you have shared many important moments and experiences with them, your attachment to them may be powerful. It takes a lot of courage to finally accept that the person is not worthy of being in your life. You might have thought of giving them chances or even change yourself to accommodate according to their behaviour, but all in vain. Ask yourself whether they are really worth losing yourself? Because ultimately they are not going to change, they are not going to get better, only you are going to get worse. Sometimes, after leaving a person you might have an itch to return to them, to let them in your life again, don't do it. Remember why you had let them go in the first place. It doesn't make any sense to let someone destroy your mental peace. You deserve better and you are worth much more than contempt.It takes a lot of courage and maturity to get out of an unhealthy relationship. Many times people cling on to a toxic relationship because they are afraid of being alone or they lack the confidence in themselves to get up and move on. Nothing and nobody is worth losing your self-respect, self-esteem and your existence. If you can't be yourself around someone you love, what's the meaning of being in a relationship? When you change yourself for someone, you usually end up in an unhappy place because the charade always comes to an end one day. It's better to leave a relationship gracefully rather than getting frustrated and making an ugly mess. You will meet all kind of people some who will want you to change, some who will love you the way you are, find them, keep them. There is no point in trying to fit in because you can never please everybody. When you sense that being in a relationship or friendship with someone comes at the cost of your identity or values, it’s time to leave.It's difficult to lose someone and get on with it immediately. It takes an emotional toll and it takes time to heal, but in the long run, it's all worth it. When you throw out the toxic people from your life, you realise how much time and energy you had been wasting on them. You will finally be able to connect with yourself and realise that you deserve more than you settled for. Don't sulk over losing someone because it's better to lose someone than losing yourself. Eventually, you will get over them and there won't be any regrets. Just allow yourself to move on and be happy. (With reference from lifehack.org)
