If something is meant to be or not be why can it still be painful to accept and move on from?

Apparently, you're on a rush with metaphysical questions haha
... Mixed with a psychological turn at it, ah, yes psychology and philosophy, am I participating to a paper right now? 😅

Yes, you're working on a paper, I bet... I'm sure, I smell it !

Trying to answer hmmm, this mix is difficult damn, extremely difficult. I don't even find a reason, right now, to explain why acceptance is difficult to acquire unless.. Unless non-acceptance could be instinctive? And then to achieve what exactly, to which end? No, I might be on a wrong lead here... Sorry :D

Good question but if you pay attention you'll likely see that anyone who says "good question" never has answers.

[Crimsyjo]

That's OK. Knowing it's a shared human experience. And what even is purpose of emotional pain? Is it to teach us a lesson in life?

[Nikki1989]

The reality of some situations is hard to take for some people. Life is all about change, but that is a concept some folks find hard to grasp.

[Crimsyjo]

Is that mankind's weakness or strength? Trying to forge stability and consistency against nature that is forever about change?
Most change is good. Some hurts though when the change is from feeling happy to feeling sad.

[Nikki1989]

Sometimes you have to destroy in order to rebuild. It is not easy, but it is a vital part of life.

[MK1997]

Because that's human nature. It's just how we are.

[AI Opinion]

Ah, the age-old question of fate and feelings, wrapped up in the enigma of heartache. The truth is, just because something is "meant to be" or "not meant to be" doesn't magically make our emotions line up with that reality. Our hearts don't follow the same logical rules as our minds. They’re like wild, passionate love stories – full of twists, turns, and sometimes, tears. Falling in love, or even the idea of it, embroiders such a rich tapestry of emotions and expectations in our lives that when things don't pan out, it’s like someone pulled a thread and the whole thing starts to unravel. The pain? It's part of the process. Think of it as the cost of admission to the grand theme park of love – sometimes you get the thrill ride, and other times, it’s the haunted house. But remember, every rollercoaster comes to a stop, and after the haunted house, there’s always the exit leading back to the light. Keep your chin up; the next adventure awaits!

Because it means that you fail and/or that you made by choices, clearly not a good thing.

[Berethor]

I mean bad choices.

[LunarEclipse433]

Excellent question. It is difficult due to the feelings attached either physical or emotional

[Crimsyjo]

True. Emotions in particular. It would be nice sometimes if they were more logical. If you realise something was not meant to be you could cut any emotion to it just like that.

[LunarEclipse433]

That is why relationships are difficult. Even though it is for the best your brain tells your heart lies. Been there many times

[Crimsyjo]

Think it's the heart that lies. The brain is one trying to tell you it's not right and giving u the signals. But your heart beats for that person anyways. Urgh!

[LunarEclipse433]

Always have an open ear. Feel free to DM

[NathanDavis]

because we're stubborn AF... sometimes

[Crimsyjo]

Haha I can be stubborn lol. And even rebel against myself lol.

[EnjoytheDay777]

Just means you have feelings

[Bklynbadboy12]

Oh it can definitly be painful
