Breakups are hard and can leave you feeling sad for days if not weeks. Whiles, it’s easy to think that breakup is easy for the one doing the dumping, it’s actually not and a breakup can be hard on both parties.
This is someone who you loved so dearly and shared something with. Even if you didn’t love them, you still care for them enough to make it hurt.
But as bad as things are now, one thing you can be certain of is that, you are going to be fine…eventually. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but you will be fine. Just give time time.
Although a lot of people at this point, try to find out ways and means to get back their exes, I believe this is rather the time to focus on you.
Focus on your healing, focus on building yourself, do some self-reflection and figure out how to move on with your life instead. It’ll get better. You will get better.
But until then, here are 50 sad broken heart quotes to give you some insight on moving on and help you fix your broken heart.
