What happens when the love is gone and your heart is still left beating. How do you let go of someone that you have already let go? How long before the official break takes place? Do we remain friends or is this really the end? There is no easy way to let someone know that you are no longer in love with them. It's not easy letting go the part of yourself that is no longer serving you. However, the sooner you do it, the better you both will be.
Staying in a relationship that is really already over is a different kind of abuse. You know it's over, but you hang on for reasons that you can not explain or justify. That's when real love transitions to a real lie and the unnatural start to feel natural. Months, years or days ago you would have never settled for such a situation; but, time and complacency has allowed you to relax into someone that is no longer you. Let it go. If you are holding on to someone for beneficial reasons and it has nothing to do with love or the lack of, then you are sealing your fate. Intentions set the tone for your future. Good or bad, you control that future.
Sometimes growth is painful, but stagnation is deadly. Peeling away that old skin, that old way of thinking so the new you can emerge is detrimental. Experience the pain of letting go. There is something that is requiring you to learn this lesson so the new you can recognize what you didn't before. It will be ok. Everything is happening so that you can get to the best you. Don't ignore the opportunity to grow. You will only repeat the lesson.
