I recently read an article on Elite Daily called 11 Feelings You Didn’t Know You Could Have Until You Fell In Love. I read a ton of articles on love and breakups, because clearly it is what I am interested in, but this one really moved me and inspired me to write. I agree with many of the feelings listed in the article, but the one that grabbed my attention was feeling number 11, honest hope.
Their point about hope was that even after love and heartbreak, we pick ourselves up and find hope to move on and find love again one day, despite what we have been through. I agree with that. I believe that after a breakup we do feel a deep sense of hope that we can find happiness one day. I certainly experienced that. But, after my breakups I did feel a sense of hope in a different way as well. Not just hope to move on.
The heartbreak I went through made me experience the intense hope of reconciliation. Before my breakups, I had no idea that I could hope for something so much. Everyday after my breakup with Max I would hope and pray that he would come back to me. I didn't realize how deeply I could feel this way. It was like an intense pull to feel this way. Something I couldn't stop or control. All I wanted was for him to come back to me. I hoped for that everyday and never felt a sense of hope that strongly. At times I didn't want anything else. All I wanted was for him to come back to me. I wanted it so badly that I actually believed this hope would turn into reality.
Now, overtime that feeling began to go away. But, I still felt it for a long time. For months it was there. Never in my life did I imagine I could feel something so strongly. It was almost stronger than the feeling of love itself. I completely believe that love and heartbreak make us feel emotions we never knew we were capable of feeling. But, I believe it is important that we don't always act on them. If I gave into this feeling of hope and begged Max to come back to me I would not be where I am today. I wouldn't be dating a nice, genuine guy, I wouldn't be on my way to complete breakup recovery, and I wouldn't be able to say I came out of this breakup on the other side.
