And, there are a bazillion weeks worth of pinterest quotes that tell you to set something/someone free if it is not bettering you (or something like that),blah, blah, blah...right?
All this self empowerment bullshit, all this "I am stronger than my critics" mumbo jumbo, is it real? Does one feel better after shutting the doors to the so-called negativity and/or criticism? Is it really encouraging us to be cold, emotionless, and apathetic? Don't get me wrong, I am not an advocate for abuse of any sort... or tolerating bullshit.
However, are we skipping that moment where we should be looking at ourselves in the mirror and asking, "Do I like what I see?" Or maybe, just maybe... swallowing our pride and saying, "maybe it is me, not them."
Cutting ties just seems to be the easy and unemotional choice these days.

Interesting, never thought of it like that. I do think it is a little of both. Everyone does have to take a moment to look inside yourself in times like that. But I do think you reach a point where you do have to let go. Maybe not of the relationship, cause that's not always an option, but maybe what your expectations of the relationship are. For your own sanity sometimes you just have to accept the relationship for what it is. Love you
