    This “I can do better” mindset is probably the single biggest factor why people end up lonely for the rest of their life.

      It sounds like oop didn’t really love her tho. They acted rash but it’s not like they saw other girls and decided to ditch the relationship

      It’s such an easy mindset to fall into, esp that young. Your other makes you feel so special, and you can easily think you can replicate that with anyone. You can’t, it comes very seldom, if ever.

      I realized that was monogamy. When you don’t have to chose just one person to share you life with you get to decide who you want to share your life with.
