im that friend that gives u lectures about life but does everything wrong

Ayyyye 🤘🏽

I was recently talking to my mom of all people about my past relationship and I was kicking myself for wasting almost 6 years of my life (half of high school and college) dating a girl who ultimately it didn’t work out with. And my mom said to me “you’re regretting being with her THEN because of the feelings you have NOW. Being hurt never feels good, but at the time you were with her, she made you happy, so there’s no sense in regretting that happiness.” Those words really shifted my perspective and made me realise you shouldn’t beat yourself up over things you can’t change or time you can’t get back. Life is full of individual moments, some good, some bad but just because there’s bad doesn’t mean you should want to erase the good that’s woven in.
