Grieving the Future You Imagined

You'll never find someone like them again, and that's true, you won't.

But that was never the problem. Every person is unique. What you had can't

be copied or replaced. That chapter is closed. Trying to recreate it will only keep

you stuck. Here's the truth most people avoid. The person you miss isn't who they really

were. Your mind erased the arguments, the disappointments, the moments they

let you down. You remember a version of them that only existed in your head.

What hurts isn't losing them. It's letting go of the future you imagined together.

You're not grieving a person, you're grieving a story, a version of life
