Quotes About Lost Love

21. “Depression isn’t always crying your mascara off in the shower and playing sad songs in bed. Sometimes it’s not wanting to talk to anyone for days and other times it’s desperately needing to be around people. Sometimes depression is having no appetite even though you haven’t eaten anything since yesterday and sometimes it’s eating everything you have in the fridge. Depression isn’t your boyfriend holding you and telling you that it’s going to be okay. It’s sitting across the table, not eating, having him ask you what’s wrong, and knowing that you’re ruining his night because you can’t seem to snap out of it and just be happy. It’s the frustrating feeling of desperately wanting to enjoy something and just fucking be normal for once. It’s keeping things a secret from the people you love because you don’t want them to look at you like you’re broken. No, depression isn’t beautiful black-and-white images. Depression is lonely and frustrating and mostly just fucking exhausting.”—midnight thoughts (Depression isn’t trendy)”

You Taught Me How To Love; You Taught Me How To Live; You Taught Me How To Laugh; You Taught Me How To Cry, But When You Left, You Forgot To Teach Me How To Forget You.

heart-broken-message

I’m proud of my heart. It’s been played, stabbed, cheated, burned, and broken but somehow still works.

Thanks for giving me the best time of my life. I will only remember our good times together and will try to live happily. I pray for your happiness too.

My eyes are hurting cause I can’t see you, My arms are empty cause I can’t hold you, My lips are cold cause I can’t kiss you, My heart is broken and I miss you!

I wish you the best in life, knowing that you will one day understand the value of being close to others and the agony of being apart. Nothing can ever take your place in my heart. Goodbye.

I used to think the worst thing in life was ending up alone. It’s not. The worst thing in life is ending up with people who make you feel all alone.

You made me fulfilled, but now I am all alone without you. I am broken, and I don’t know how to get over from this.

There are things that we don’t want to happen but have to accept, things we don’t want to know but have to learn, and people we can’t live without but have to let go.

Living a day without you would mean having no life at all. But if losing you is the best thing to make you happy, then I must live without a life.

My sadness has become an addiction when I’m not sad, I feel lost. I start to panic trying to find my way back which leads me back to my original state: sadness.

Absolutely heartbroken and crushed but trying my best to cope. I call my life on to the next chapter of this crazy thing!

People always think the most painful thing is to lose the one you love. In truth, the most painful thing is to lose YOURSELF and not even realize it until it’s too late.

Some days are just bad days, that’s all. You have to experience sadness to know happiness, and I remind myself that not every day is going to be a good day, that’s just the way it is!

Sometimes giving someone a second chance is like giving them another bullet for their gun because they missed you the first time.

I don’t understand why destiny allowed some people to meet… when there’s no way for them to be together… :'(

I don’t know why they call it heartbreak. It feels like every other part of my body is broken too.

My worst nightmare came true; I never thought we would have to part ways like this. We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it. Thanks for the beautiful memories.

The thing that made me suffer was not losing you; it was losing myself. As I heal my broken heart, I find myself trying to rediscover the old me once more.

So I guess that I am the loser cause you have found someone new but I am still here, still all alone just crying over you.

Somewhere there’s someone who dreams of your smile and finds in your presence that life’s worthwhile. So when you’re lonely remember it’s true: somebody somewhere is thinking of you.

I cry, but not because I need you back, Not because I want you but because I finally realize I’m learning how to let you go.

Just because I moved on doesn’t mean I won’t be here if you change your mind. You always have a special place in my heart.

Sometimes, you hurt the ones who love you most. Sometimes You hold the ones who leave you lost, and sometimes you learn but it’s too late, it’s too late!

Why do I always think of you? You tell me that you like me then you start ignoring me! I don’t like this game because I know I’ll never win the prize, YOU!!

It hurts the most when someone who made you feel special yesterday then makes you feel like you are the most unwanted person today!

I said I am over you, But every time my phone vibrates my heart still wishes it’s a call from you! Why did that happen to me?

Someone asked me what the happiest day of my life was, as I closed my eyes and felt a tear slide down my face I thought back to the day where you first told me you loved me.

This is what it felt like to have a broken heart. It felt less like a cracking down the middle and more like she had swallowed it whole, and it sat bruised and bleeding in the pit of her stomach. – Wendy Wunder
