i know you've lost someone and it hurts. you may have lost them suddenly, unexpectedly. or perhaps you began losing pieces of them until one day, there was nothing left. you may have known them all your life or you may have barely known them at all. either way, it is irrelevant – you cannot control the depth of a wound another soul conflicts upon you. which is why i am not to tell you tomorrow is another day. that the sun will go on shining. or there are plenty of fish in the sea. what i will tell you is this; it's okay to be hurting as much as you are. what you are feeling is not only completely valid but necessary – because it makes you so much more human. and though i can't promise it will get better any time soon, i can tell you that it will – eventually. for now, all you can do is take your time. take all the time you need.

if there's any piece of advice i could give you, it's to love yourself before you try and love someone else. you'll think by loving someone else, it'll make you love yourself - but that's not how it works. you'll eventually end up losing yourself in them, and the love you couldn't give yourself, you gave to them. when it's over and they leave, and they will, you'll believe you lost the best thing that's ever happened to you. however, this isn't true. you're the best thing that's ever happened to you. so love yourself, don't lose yourself.
