Moving On,Letting Go

Everyone has an opinion on how long it takes to recover from a breakup or moving on from one's baggage or even a desvastating past.Some say it's half the length of the relationship.Some say it's a week for every month you were together.While for others,it's exactly 10,000 drinks and maybe shoving every ounce of anger in one's body to the other one's face.For jerks,maybe all they'd need to do is have another one night stand.But hey,whatever gets you through the night right?Somebody once said,"the moment you start to recover is the moment you meet someone that puts you back on track,you know,get you back in the game".Don't know about you,but agree with it.

According to Barney Stinson,played by Neil Patrick Harris,there are eight steps of the relationship process.

  1. Attraction
  2. Bargaining
  3. Submission
  4. Perks
  5. The Tipping Point
  6. Purgatory
  7. Confrontation
  8. Fallout
  9. Co-Existence(Suggested by Ted)

However,moving on is all about the 9th step,Co-existence.Moving on is not about forgetting.It's definitely not about supressing your feelings.It's about closure to a story in your life.It doesn't have to have a happy ending because it isn't the end yet,it's just an end of a chapter.Instead of living in denial,people start to move on the moment the accept the fact and face the truth.Otherwise things will always be hanging,always be unfinished.And we all know the things we honestly regret are always the ones we didn't do,not the ones we did.A lengthen,sincere and honest talk is highly recommended for the moving on process.Thus,the title,Co-existence.It means the person will be neutral towards you and you didn't kill him off in your life.Only then,you have gotten through the hump of a mountain.And no doubt after that,you may pat yourself in the back as you've gotten stronger.Maybe I am a little hypocritical as I don't even utilise my own knowledge of advices.Maybe I am doing something wrong. But all I know is if I don't do it I'd regret for the rest of my life and I'll lose my identity.

Sigh moving on is such a pain in the ass
We can't bare to let go,because we know once we did
It will be gone forever
But maybe it's fate,it's our destiny
Remember this
Good things fall apart
To make way for better things
Till next time
