Unloving The Wrong Person Is An Act Of Self-love

  Have you ever loved someone who you knew was wrong for you? Have you ever given the last atom of your love to someone who you knew was bad for you? To someone who didn’t deserve you? To someone who didn’t appreciate you? To someone who never loved you back and never would? I am sure you have. Because, let’s face it—we’ve all been through something similar at one point in our lives. And if you’ve been through something like this, you’ve also been through the process of unloving this person, as well. Because you knew that was exactly what you had to do, for your own good. You’ve been fighting with yourself, knowing that you have to do something to stop loving this man. You’ve been fighting to kill all the hopes and desires you had that he’ll eventually change and that he’ll become worthy of your love. Your reason has been fighting with your feelings. Because your heart and soul kept holding on to this love even though your mind has always known that the only thing you need to do is to let go. That the only thing that you need to do is to walk away from this person. That you need to unlove them as soon as possible. And nobody is trying to tell you that something like this is easy. Because it is everything besides that. It is a painful process which requires more strength than you might think. But sometimes, it simply has to be done.   Because unloving the wrong person is one of the most powerful acts of self-love. It is an act of self-care, an act of understanding your self-worth and an act in which you prove to yourself that you matter. It is an act in which you choose yourself over someone who would never choose you. An act in which you finally put yourself in front of this someone who was never ready to put you first.  An act in which you understand that you are your own biggest priority and that your needs and desires are more important than anyone else’s. It is an act in which you understand that you are not to blame for the way this person has been treating you. In which you finally understand that you are more than enough and that he is the one who is not enough to deserve your love.   An act which helps you stop questioning your value. In which you understand that you are more than worthy of someone’s love. In which you understand that he is the one who is not worthy of your love. It is an act in which you understand that you are a complete individual and that you can make it on your own, without this wrong guy by your side. An act in which you understand that you should never allow anyone to try to change you and that you shouldn’t change a thing about yourself just to please someone who shouldn’t exist in your life in the first place. It is an act in which you understand that you should never make sacrifices for anyone else besides you. That you should never diminish your own worth by allowing someone else to do it.   It is an act in which you are getting rid of everything that’s been holding you down. In which you are cutting off that toxic person who has brought you nothing but harm. In which you let go of all the negativity and pessimism in your life. It is an act of incredible power and strength. An act in which you finally understand everything you’ve been always been capable of and in which you understand that you can do everything he has been telling you you can’t. It is an act in which you defeat someone who had an aim to destroy you. An act in which you defeat your emotional pain and everything bad you’ve been through. An act in which you defeat your emotions and in which you overcome yourself.
