Comparison.

Comparing ourselves to the ones we once loved lovers, rattles are bones a little more often than we think. For some reason it's always and internal battle of "I wasn't good enough" or "Had things been this way." The point is we all fall back to this at point or another. I've done this on many occasions and thought I was in the wrong because I should just be over, but the truth is you never get over the ones you loved. You will always love them and they will have had someway impacted your life, good or bad. Hell, it was a learning experience right? It made us love ourselves a little more and we put on that war paint to go and refund who we really are. I'm thankful for the good, the bad, and the ugly, because it's a solid reminder that it's not going to hurt so much. The ones we once loved got away, but we never strayed. There's always 2 sides to a story and we'll always fight that ours was the right one, but so is theirs. Give it time, because eventually once you love yourself, that's when you fall in love for the first time and you're no longer the one we once loved, you're the one that's in love and that's permanent.
