40. As they drive away from the property you just vacated in the moving van containing all of your worldly possessions.

“Letting you know it’s over as they drive away from the property you just vacated in the moving van containing all of your worldly possessions. Literally left me homeless, penniless, with only the shirt on my back. If you’re still alive, fuck you Alex.”

—Ahdoom

41. Burn them a CD of breakup songs.

“A high-school girlfriend broke up with me via CD, she burned breakup/I’m better off without you style songs on to it and gave it to me after school. 16-year-old me was devastated, 27-year-old me knows it’s the weirdest breakup story I’ll ever have.”

Trace the scars life has left you. It will remind you that at one point, you fought for something. You believed.

“You are the only person who gets to decide if you are happy or not—do not put your happiness into the hands of other people. Do not make it contingent on their acceptance of you or their feelings for you. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if someone dislikes you or if someone doesn’t want to be with you. All that matters is that you are happy with the person you are becoming. All that matters is that you like yourself, that you are proud of what you are putting out into the world. You are in charge of your joy, of your worth. You get to be your own validation. Please don’t ever forget that.” — Bianca Sparacino
