Breakups can be devastating–just listen to any love song. But oftentimes, the toughest moments in our lives also serve as the biggest springboards for growth.
We just don’t always see it right away. But with time, comes perspective.
As queer people, we don’t usually start dating until later in life, providing ample opportunity for missteps and mistakes. Sometimes we do our partner dirty, and other times we entrust the wrong person. Regardless of who’s at fault, the pain doesn’t hurt any less.
The key is, learning from our mistakes, and trying not to repeat them. Anybody who’s experienced personal highs and lows knows that life is not linear.
The more topsy-turvy the journey, the more blissful the destination. At least, that’s what we hope!
