How do you truly get over a breakup? I’m doing things with my life (ex: traveling, hanging out with friends, bettering my career, etc) but part of me still feels like I’m not truly over it and am empty. Is there a reason for this?

This is such a painful answer, but I’ve found that time actually helps. 4 months ago I was devastated and could barely eat/get out of bed, but now I barely think about my ex. It can feel like a void for a while, but I promise that your heart will start to heal, and you will find peace again

I think I’m scared of how I’m forgetting him. Bc it really doesn’t hurt as much anymore, it’s more just emptiness. I’m genuinely forgetting him but that scared me so much :(

Forgetting is part of the healing, you won’t forget it all, and some things will always remind you of them, but losing what was makes space for something new to come along
