Broken relationships are hard to let go of, especially when you've invested everything in them. Holding onto an empty relationship is kinda like two people carrying a heavy sheet of glass between themselves; if one suddenly lets go before they can safely put it down, it will most probably become too much for the other to handle by themselves, causing it to fall and break into shards. And glass shards hurt. It hurts even more when the other person refuses to acknowledge the issues. You are injured now, and you don't know how to move forward without hurting yourself even more. There are sharp, shattered pieces everywhere - reminders of all your feelings, hopes, and time invested. Sometimes, you may even feel like you're crippled of experiencing emotion. Would you want to patch up your pains? Would you try to go on? Would you have the strength left to do so anymore? Or would you just pretend you're fine and stay away from it all? Do you know your answers? I don't...
