Getting over someone is hard.
Especially when you two used to talk a lot. Nonstop. They were your daily routine. Then you see them stop talking to you hurts a lot. They were always there for you, then you see them flirting with someone.. Sometimes you wished that you never met them before because maybe life would be 10x better without them. But at times, it’s kind of better that they were a part of your life, even though it was only a little. At least they gave you memories that you two would never forget.
" What is family? They were the people who claimed you. In good, in bad, in parts or in whole, they were the ones who showed up, who stayed in there, regardless. It wasn’t just about blood relations or shared chromosomes, but something wider, bigger. We have many families over time. Our family of origin, the family we created, and the groups you moved through while all of this was happening: friends, lovers, sometimes even strangers. None of them perfect and we couldn’t expect them to be. You can’t make any one person your world. The trick was to take what each could give you and build your world from it. "
