Most of the time when a person leaves one person for another, it is because the new person provides them with something that the former person could not give them. It could be emotional stability, good communication, or a healthy relationship altogether. Or the person could cheat on you with someone else.
Whatever be the reason, it always hurts to be replaced by someone else. It hurts so much that the person with whom you shared your everything until some days ago is not there for you anymore, and now you are left with so many things to share but no one to share with, whereas that person has not lost much, she or he now has a whole new person with whom they can share their everything.
She left me for someone else, will it last? Yes, it will. Not to make you feel bad about yourself but maybe she chose someone else over you because she is more compatible with them than you, maybe whatever you two had with each other was not mutual and the relationship was not getting anywhere, and after a point it became toxic.
Maybe it was not your fault, but maybe it is not her fault either, it is always better to choose someone else than being in a relationship that is toxic and stagnant, which does not help each other grow. She left you which means something did not work out between you two. And she chose someone else because it is working out with them. Maybe the new person brings her peace and comfort and that’s why she chose them over you.
Leaving for someone else is one thing, but cheating on you for someone else is the worst. If she tells you that she is leaving you because she has developed feelings for someone else then there is nothing much you can blame her with, you can not blame someone just because they decide to be with someone that is not you.
If your partner gets involved with someone else behind your back or in simple terms, cheats on you, then there is nothing worse than they can do to you. Being cheated on is so emotionally damaging, it destroys one’s self-esteem and kills their confidence for years, getting back from which is the toughest job that there is. No apology can ever make it right.
Nothing ever beats the feeling of being replaced by someone else, the constant feeling of being worthless, unloved, and replaceable hound you every now and then. You start to question everything in your life, you lose your self-esteem, you stop believing in love ever again, you doubt everyone who tries to come close to you, you question everything and everyone, you think if you can trust anyone ever again.
But, trust me you will. You will fall in love again and you will start trusting people again, it takes a while to get back to the groove after being broken so badly, but you will get your self-esteem back. It takes time and patience.
It takes you to put yourself first and working on your emotions to be emotionally independent so that the next time someone leaves you your world does not stop revolving for a while.
What If It Lasts? Should I Be Bothered If It Worked?
People come and go from people’s lives all the time. Some leave because they find the other person more compatible than the previous, and some leave because they like hopping from one person to another, and there are others who leave for reasons unknown.
But, so what if it lasts, should you be bothered? You should not be, but you would, it will happen. You will be emotionally wrecked. It is never easy to see someone you were with/wanted to be with for so long is now with someone else. Every time you see them together and you see them happy, it will break your heart into a thousand little pieces.
- The key is to focus on yourself and your mental health. The key is to stop stalking your ex on social media, unfollow or block them on every platform possible, delete their number, delete their pictures, and do it for as long it is needed to forget them.
- Train your mind so hard that it does not bring back any memories of you two, keep controlling your mind, master over it, every time a thought pops up in your head about the past, think about something else and keep telling your mind that you do not want these thoughts back, it is going to be a hard and strenuous journey but it is going to be worth it, eventually.
- Do not get into any bad habit, do not let the evil win, get new hobbies, do things which make you happy, practice new hobbies, learn to play an instrument or watch movies or read books, learn new stuff, keep yourself busy, and make yourself productive, get something really meaningful out of this ordeal.
- If you have no choice, if she is a classmate or a work colleague or someone who you cannot help but see every now and then, then the key is to ‘fake it till you make it’s every time you see her with her partner’, pretend that you do not care, do not let go of that smile on your face, look right through her and smile, pretend as if she is just another friend of yours.
- Do not give in to your emotions or your mind. Keep reminding yourself that you should not care, make new friends and hang out with them, do it and keep doing it until it does not hurt anymore.
When you do these things for long enough, you will find yourself not caring anymore after a while, it would not bother you anymore. And eventually, you will find someone else who will stay and who will give you the butterflies and who will make you happy like no one before.
Take this bad phase as an experience, you will see at the end how strong it makes and prepares you so well for the things and ordeals to come for you in the future
What If It Does Not Last?
When we love someone we try and do everything that is in our able self to keep the person, and if even after all that it does not last and they left then one thing is for sure that leaving you was not very hard for them, so if they are gone for good then great, but if the relationship with the other person does not last and they try to come back to your life, then do not, I repeat do not go back to them, do not be a second option, second chances work but very rarely, those who leave, leave again most of the times, do not give in to your emotions, do not get weak in front of them.
Do everything you can to move on and eventually, you will find someone who will decide to stay no matter what, and for whom you will never be a second option.
People who come back are nothing but lonely, they always need someone by their side, does not matter, if they really loved you or if you really mattered to them then they should not have left in the first place. So, do not let them use you according to their convenience.
So, does not matter if it lasts or if it does not, do not be bothered because it has nothing to do with you.
