Dear Heartbreak Quotes

“Sometimes I believe I can't take any more. But I'm slowly healing. Slowly, so slowly. But every conversation is a stake into an open wound. Heartbreak ins't how it's portrayed. It's so much worse. It's devotion to a person who no longer wants you. It's obsession and depression. Somehow, some way, I think I'll be okay. I know I'll always love you. I'll always miss you. First loves don't go away. First heartbreaks linger even longer. But maybe one day I will be able to remember you and smile knowing what we had was something, even if it's gone.”

“Loving yourself is damn hard because it means accepting all the parts of you that you can't stand. It means knowing you're actually okay even though society wants you to believe that you aren't. It's downright revolutionary.”

“Falling in love can be easy. When the person you are in love with reveals that they love you back, it's the closest thing to a genuine miracle some of us will never experience. And when that feeling is taken away, and you have to get by without it, it just seems like an impossible task. It's like going from a world filled with color to one cast solely in black and white. You can't imagine a time when you won't feel this way; you're convinced you will feel this way forever, unless he comes back to you.

“I am not fully forged yer - my metal is still glowing red-hot, being shaped and molded, but I know what sort of sword I want to be now. You are still in the fires, Abandoned, still malleable. Who knows what sort of sword you will become? You have time to craft yourself, to forge your own shape. And you will be stronger than you thought you could be.

“We never really "arrive" at ourselves. We keep changing and growing. We dust ourselves off when something doesn't work. We learn to love ourselves when it feels as if no one else does.

“Pain, mistakes, failure, heart-stompingness, embarrassment, rejection, frustration, anger, loneliness, and occasionally feeling alienated are all part of the ride and are every bit as important as love, laughter, joy excitement, success, romance, hope, accomplishment, and trust.
