Navigating the aftermath of a breakup and accepting differing experiences
One might feel confused and blame themselves when their partner does not communicate doubts or reasons for the breakup. Even in a seemingly happy relationship, if the partner is having doubts, it can lead to internal suffering for the other person. Moving on from such a breakup can bring peace as the sense of feeling unsafe dissipates. To heal, one needs to shift focus from the idealized version of the relationship in their mind to the reality that the partner had a different experience. Accepting that the great love story in one's mind may not have been the reality can lead to genuine acceptance and healing. It's crucial to acknowledge that both individuals might have been on different pages in the relationship, even if one perceived it as perfect.
