I can’t describe the loneliness of living alone after 11 years in a relationship. I no longer remember how to enjoy being by myself. The nights feel silent and monotonous. It’s not sad - just different. But it will get better 😊

It’s very hard at first, but it does get better… but on the bright side it will give you space for introspection and potentially rediscovering yourself

Things definitely get better with time and it’s definitely healthy for you to rediscover yourself ❤️

It must be very hard after 11 years! 🤗 Though it’s always hard to readjust after a significant relationship ends, it will get better.

There is something brave in sitting with that silence after so long. It’s okay if it feels heavy or strange for a while, you're essentially getting to know yourself again! Sending you hugs!

Going through this right now. Peace will come in time, remember to be kind to yourself.
