When they suddenly decide they don't want you.

It’s fucked isn’t it? How someone can treat you and make you feel like you’re what the world needs, then all of a sudden it’s over in a heartbeat. A few seconds is all they need to tear your heart out of your chest and smash it to pieces.

Somewhere in the middle of all the bullshit, love gives you a fairy tale. Once upon a time someone starts to like you and you start to like them, so you give each other a chance. He takes you out on dates, he texts you every minute of every day, he’s the first person you talk to in the morning and the last person you talk to at night, he becomes the person that you run to when something bad happened, he gives you little surprises and reminds you you’re beautiful every day, he gives you kisses on the forehead, he hugs you from behind, he hugs you when you’re mad and doesn’t let go until you’re calm, he looks into your eyes when he says he loves you and you eventually believe it, he’s perfect. He became you’re other half and you wonder how on earth you lived your whole life without knowing him. Suddenly your heart doesn’t belong to you anymore. You love him, or you think you do.

Suddenly he stops texting and ignores you when you’re around. He decides that you’re not worth his time anymore. Then when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, he tells you he doesn’t want you anymore. It’s one thing to think it but it’s another thing to HEAR it. You feel as though your heart just got ripped out of your chest, thrown on the ground, stomped on and smashed into a million little pieces. Suddenly it was all worthless- your grades lowering, sacrificing your time with family and friends, spending money on him, and giving him the one thing you need to live; your heart. Your friends don’t understand because they haven’t been through it yet but they suffer with you. The pain becomes too much and you want it to stop but you don’t know how to make it stop so you cut. You stop eating and prefer to stay home more. Your parents begin to see the transformation and feel disappointed in themselves for not protecting you against the one thing that could hurt anyone, at your age.

You begin to ask yourself questions but never want the answers because, at the time, it would’ve broken you even more.  Heartbreak isn’t something anybody wants but if you let it rule your life then how are you supposed to love again? And if you can’t love again, then how are you supposed to find your soul mate? How you deal with heartbreak is up to you. It's always the worst after the break up. The pain is the only thing you feel, and you wake up everyday knowing he won't be there anymore. You wake up feeling the emptiest feeling and it makes you wonder how you're going to get through the day. Everything you do will remind you of him and the pain hits you like it did the first time, each and every time.

Heartbreak is that one thing that no-one, but yourself, can help you through. Heartbreak is the one thing no-one can protect you from. It'll scar you but it makes you stronger and smarter for next time. Don't ever think you couldn't love someone else the way you did that one person because you can, it's just a matter of finding the right person. Don't be in a rush to find the ''one'' because in the midst of it all you'll realise you're not in love with the person you're with, you're in love with the idea of love.

Heartbreak isn't easy. But sooner or later you have to realise that it's time to move on with your life because he was only one chapter and you'll have many more before the book ends.
