"But thinking never took away tears. Only time did."
I used to suffer immensely from breakups, but then I realized what always made it worse was that I was unconsiously believing is was going to be an eternal pain. It's important to always keep in mind that, no matter how much you're suffering from a breakup, you'll be fine sooner than later. And the sooner you take this into account, the less time it takes for pain to go away.
Exactly well said
Alright...
Very encouraging.
