LOVE IS A TOTAL DRAMA QUEEN. BE PATIENT!

This is an open letter a lifeline extended to all those grappling with the challenging aftermath of a lost love.

LOVE IS A TOTAL DRAMA QUEEN. BE PATIENT!

I was 20 years old when I first experienced the profound ache of a broken heart, dedicating a considerable portion of the subsequent months to building myself back up piece by piece. When, at last, I arrived at a point where I could say, “Hey, I’m okay,” I decided to bottle up that feeling with one single intention: to share it with others in the way I wish it had been offered to me.

If you, my dear, are expecting this read to be one that will leave you crying your eyes out over a tub of ice cream, I’m going to have to disappoint. With equal parts humour and heartfelt advice, this is a story about the lessons I’ve learned, a personal account from your fellow break-up survivor.

First things first, congratulations! You have officially joined the elite club of ‘The Recently Uncoupled’. While it might not feel like an achievement at the moment, especially as you continue to master the art of switching from ‘we’ to ‘me’ in conversations, trust me when I say you’re about to embark on a journey of self-discovery.

Picture it as wandering through an unexplored forest, each step revealing a new layer of resilience, courage, and the untapped strength within you.
