Oh I totally agree. This may be the most important thing I learned from this experience: that humans are weird and strange.

It almost becomes philosophical. Who are we? And what do others represent for us? We are subjective beings. We make our own reality in our minds. We only know someone through our own subjectivity and can never truly know the other person.

It’s also very difficult to accept that the person we chose to spend our life with rejects us and doesn’t want to be with us. But we need to rebuild our confidence and accept to let them go. Don’t define yourself by what someone else decides to do with their life.
