In a romantic relationship there is just a higher probability of a cloudy image to take hold when love is involved. Someone who is possibly an endearing match might very well not be who they appear to be. Inevitably there comes that moment when you realize that the person you have been dating or were dating isn’t what you had in your head. I’m sure that this has happened to most of us. The reaction to that moment is one of nausea, sadness, upset, disappointment… Something negative. However, once you peel back everything and really examine where you are in life (where you are with that person), you are left with a sense of gratitude. Be thankful that you discovered who that person is, what that person brought out of you, the emotions, the experiences of life. Most importantly, be thankful that you now see that person for who they truly are and what their priorities actually are. This way when they communicate with you, you can actually get their entire communication instead of what you want to hear from the person you thought they were. Then you can move on with your life and enjoy it the way that life is meant to be enjoyed. Obviously easier said than done when you’re in the midst of a romantic relationship or the end of one. However, moving through a situation which has caused so much pain is the truest form of loving yourself. This creates a strength of character that would have otherwise been missed. Remember, we are not the failings of others, we are not the limitations of people we once trusted, we are the sum of what we have learned and what we choose to believe about ourselves. The actions of others can never define who we are unless we allow it.
