117 Relatable Quotes To Lift Up Your Spirit Post Breakup

 

Love is never lost. The love that you have shared will always find a way to return back to you. That’s the story of this universe we live in. It’s true that breakups aren’t pretty but they also don’t define the endings. Endings are defined by how you take all the mixed emotions that are coming at you right now. You are free to take some time for all the goodbyes and let it out of your system and you are also free to catch the ‘new beginnings’ wagon right away. In whichever way you take it, know that it’s just a phase and it shall pass. The warm and comfortable days will come back again as seasons do but on the days you feel the discomfort and chills of reality, some relatable words make good reads.

2. “Isn’t it funny how the memories you cherish before a breakup can become your worst enemies afterwards? The thoughts you loved to think about, the memories you wanted to hold up to the light and view from every angle–it suddenly seems a lot safer to lock them in a box, far from the light of day and throw away the key. It’s not an act of bitterness. It’s an act of self-preservation. It’s not always a bad idea to stay behind the window and look out at life instead, is it?” – Allyson Braithwaite Condie
