THIS IS WHAT MOVING ON MEANS

Moving on means being able to look through old photographs without breaking into tears, because you’re past the pain. You’re past the point of wishing things had turned out differently. You’ve reached a place where you can look back on your memories with a smile, where you can be happy that you met each other, but also happy that you left each other.

Moving on means that you no longer refer to your ex as crazy and make them out to be the bad guy when telling stories. You don’t have any hard feelings, so you don’t bash them whenever you have the chance. And if you ran into them somewhere, you would treat them like an old friend. You see no reason to treat them like crap.

Moving on means that you no longer remember their birthday or the date of your anniversary. You no longer look for them everywhere that you go, secretly hoping that you’ll see them and  dreading that you’ll see them at the same time.

Moving on means that you have stopped missing them. Your fingers have stopped itching to text them. You would rather hang out with your friends, with that new person you’re crushing on, or with your own self than see if they can meet up.

Moving on means that your heart doesn’t sink when you see a photograph of them with someone new. Your day isn’t ruined when you find out that they are moving to far away places. Your mood doesn’t depend on something that they do or do not decide to go.

Moving on means that you can find out that they’re getting married or expecting a child and are honestly able to say that you are happy for them instead of jealous. You are happy they aren’t still hung up on you after all this time. You are happy they decided to settle down. You are happy they have found someone who fits them better than you ever could.

Moving on means that you have deleted all of their messages from your phone. You have stopped stalking their social media. You have lost the desire to talk about them. You have given up on the chance that you’ll reunite one day. You have accepted that you’re happier without them than you ever  where together.

God Bless Us..
