Ah, breakups – it doesn’t matter what kind it is, whether it’s platonic or romantic, but it can be quite hard to navigate. However, there are hopeful reasons why they remain a necessity. Separation isn’t always easy, as it means being away from someone who meant a lot to you before.
In this blog, we’ll talk about the greener side of breaking up: reasons why they’re absolutely necessary!
A Better Life
For some, breaking up is an opportunity to get on track towards a better life. A lot of people who have experienced breakups before now enjoy a considerably better life than the ones that they had when they were still with their previous partners.
Life isn’t just like a game of slots, after all. It’s a serious matter to be intentional about things – and especially about people and relationships that aren’t healthy anymore and no longer serve you. A breakup can be reframed in a more positive light.
You deserve nice things, good things – and, of course, a much better life; when you break up with someone, think of it as the start to a better life, although recovering from it can take a while. In a few years, you might find yourself in a better place and a healthier relationship. Take it from us!
A Wake-Up Call For Growth
Breakups, of course, are easy to reframe positively, especially in hindsight. Romantic relationships have plenty of potential to be breeding grounds for something unhealthy – especially if both you and your partner do not exert effort in communication and working through your personal and couple relationship issues. This is where therapy can come in.
A lot of people realize, after the breakup, that in itself, it was a call to grow and make the change to become a much better person. A lot of these breakups are from people who’ve been together for a long time.
After this realization that you guys need to change one way or another, it becomes somehow more effortless to put in the work. It’s great for both of you to reevaluate your identity without the other and outside of the relationship and set aside time to rediscover yourself.
Settling
Breakups are also a moral lesson that you don’t deserve to settle for less – especially for people who have had partners who did not treat them well. Abuse is one of the reasons why you should outright break up with your partners, of course, and you should dump them for that. But for those who did not abuse their partners at all and yet could have done a lot of things better, the aftermath of a breakup, no doubt, would also be the imminent wake-up call to raise your own standards.
There are behaviors that you shouldn’t have to settle for. What you deserve is something infinitely much, much better.
Finding One’s Self
When you break up with someone, and it’s someone who did not treat you as well, it’s an opportunity for you to find yourself and glow up. A lot
of women who break up/get dumped by their partners usually improve themselves, gain a lot more confidence, and even have better partners.
Wrapping Up
In many ways, a breakup can be more good than bad. Hindsight is one such reason – and so is growth. For so many women, it’s the painful reality of trying to move onto better things, and that journey helps them self-actualize.
