Sometimes doing the right thing can be painful
When we talk about breakups and endings we tend to speak directly to the person who got broken up with/ didn’t want the ending to happen. That’s important work. And, there’s also another human in this equation who is often having complex emotions as well.
A decision isn’t always cut and dry. And so here is a reminder that even when you are making a decision that is healthy and aligned for you it’s common to have doubt creep in, it’s expected that there will be a lot of both/and experiences. Both sadness and relief. Both fear of regret and clarity.
You are not expected to experience neutrality as you walk through this chapter (although it’s also okay if you do). You are not expected to feel only one way or never question something. If you cared about someone that care doesn’t just turn off 100%. If you loved someone that love doesn’t simply go away.
So just a gentle reminder today to the initiators — you are entitled to feel the full range. Make space for it.
