I don’t think people talk about this part of break up enough and I feel like it's something we should address in this post.

My emotions are all over the place as I write this — but please stay with me.

Love is very beautiful but when it’s just about to end, it’s the most miserable experience you can ever have. The post-relationship trauma slowly hits. You start to feel empty because the person who was beside you no longer seems to exist. They’re not dead, but they disappeared. That feeling is so frustrating and so overwhelming at the same time.

Somedays I’ve questioned what’s the point of living. Because I dedicated my life to this one person and then it’s like investing in some multi-level marketing scheme…
