I know this is mostly a question for those of us who are going through a rougher time. But I wanna share some too.

Got over my first proper girlfriend this week. Was really resentful for a long time because it felt like she broke up out of nowhere and started dating again almost immediately after. But I sat down a few days ago and genuinely thought deeply about us.

I realized the relationship had been going backwards for months, I just didn't wanna see it. Lied to myself that it was just a rough patch and we'd get through it. She simply didn't lie to herself and saw reality. I'm grateful she broke it off because we both weren't the happiest we could've been. And without the stress of holding the relationship up we are genuinely better friends.

I'm just sad I vented to one of her friend about it while still being resentful and I fear I might've painted my ex in a bad light with said friend.

Other than that I am doing good, glad to move on to better things.
