Seeing How Much You’ve Changed
As someone who got out of a 3-year-long relationship about four months ago, I would say one of the biggest things that makes me happy about being single is being able to see myself clearly again. You don’t realize how much being in a relationship can blind you to how you’ve changed or how love can numb you to certain things.
When I got out of that relationship and once the initial crying and being depressed phase ended, I slowly realized how much happier I was and how much I’ve changed, some of it good and some bad, but it was like being able to see myself through a clear lens and not through a distorted one.
