I finally deleted everything

I finally did it, 2 months after the break up, with 2 days left in 2024.

Every single photo, every single text, every single voice message, every single birthday card, every single video.

I cried throughout it all, stared at some of the pictures where we looked so happy or he looked so good and in love with me. But I'm so proud of myself, even if I'm still sobbing as I write this.

Thank you to this subreddit, it felt nice to be part of a collective and grieve together. Whatever happens, we've got this. We will survive, we will live, we will love.

Much love to you all, and have a great New Year ❤️

One day later edit:

Wow, I am absolutely blown away by the response to this post. Thank you to everyone for your stories, your experiences, your encouragement, your hype, your thoughts - I appreciate every single one of you!

To those who used this as inspiration for their own journey, I am honored to have played a part in your next steps.

To all my broken hearts, this subreddit is proof that there are like-minded people out there, people who have capacity to feel how you feel, people who can provide unconditional support and understanding. I know there are times where it feels like you can barely breathe, and times where you feel it's all pointless, but if you can do one act of self-love for yourself in this New Year, it's to keep going. You've more strength than you think and you've people out there (this subreddit a prime example) that are cheerleading for you.

Happy New Year, friends, I'm wishing the best for you all!
