If you don’t have family that makes it natural for you to be happy with yourself, then get friends that do. Memes and quotes are temporary, but god friends are forever!!

But I still need a closure. How can we stop having hopes that maybe, just maybe it is going to work someday? Waiting and having hopes because of not having a closure is a perpetual pain. And on the other hand, regrets from just leaving might emerge at any time. I'm stuck right now, because I need a closure so that I can get over, but the 'ifs' and ' mights' are just giving me a hard time. Even though they show you they don't deserve you, you still want to hear it. Life is unfair..

Wow. Serendipitous that I saw this. I've been fighting with someone in my family who I am very close to (but who has historically lashed out at me repeatedly and gaslit me and done very mean things) for several days now after him suddenly again lashing out at me (literally out of the blue a day after everything was great), and he said something very cruel and unfair that has left me reeling. Our relationship is basically done after what he said and his refusal to walk that back, and in fact saying that I would have to admit to secretly wishing an extremely horrible accident to happen to him (which is 100% never the case- I love this person) or else I am not validating his reality. I kept saying I didn't feel that and giving him the chance to apologize, but it won't be coming. I'm heartbroken about it. But this text above is super helpful to me.
