Getting over someone is sometimes like trying to push yourself over a rock sunk in a river while lying on your belly on an inflatable mattress and paddling with your outstretched arms.
Getting over someone is sometimes like trying to get used to the cold, like standing outside in the snow and thinking, "If I just stand here a little longer, I'll warm up."
Getting over someone is sometimes like sending a postcard to a friend and finding out that your friend moved and didn't tell you.
Getting over someone is sometimes like a taking a long, bleak walk on a gray day alone down a country road in winter.
Getting over someone is hard.
It is always, always hard.

Hearrr you. Especially the river-rock-belly-pushing comparison. :)
ReplyDeleteI heard this quote, that was actually kind of depressing, but at least so relatable--it said,
"Missing someone isn't about how long it's been since you've seen them last, or the amount of time since you've talked. It's about that very moment when you're doing something, and you wish that they were right there with you."
Yes! That is good.
ReplyDeleteThis was good. One of my favorite quotes is: “Old lovers go the way of old photographs, bleaching out gradually as in a slow bath of acid: first the moles and pimples, then the shadings. Then the faces themselves, until nothing remains but the general outlines.”
ReplyDeleteGetting over someone takes work, a lot of hard work.
Such a good quote anthony.
