Seven years.

How do I tell you to move on? I can’t and I’m probably not the most credible person to tell you that. Anyway, even if I do, you still have a way with arguments to bring you back to your current state (stubborn you!). So take your time, it’s yours anyway. Never mind the world. Feel sad, cry all you want and be bitter about things. Come on, we’re talking about seven years and the love of your life! You have license for all of those.

I know you don’t have the “Aiko Melendez” complex yet, which is fine. And during your cry-ola moments, you still hope (who doesn’t?). You want to hold on and not to let go. Well, at least not yet. Something to think about though, you are holding on. To what exactly are you holding on again? Take a closer look. Probably without even realizing it, you’ve been holding on too tight that it’s already making you bleed.

Again, I’m not telling you to move on. But maybe, just maybe, it’s time to let go of that thread that keeps you bleeding. And if/when you do, the bleeding will stop eventually. The wound will close and heal in time. From there, you can already start asking yourself if you are ready to move on.
