Reflecting upon my single life today, the following popped into my head.
I would miss…
- Warm welcomes home
- Sweet nothings whispered in my ear
- Working together as a couple, as a family
- Being appreciated for all that I do
- The loving looks
- Compliments
- Little surprises
- Outings together
- Meeting up with friends
But you cannot miss what you never had so instead …
I will not miss…
- The cold silence when I walked in the door
- The indifference
- Being watched while I cooked, cleaned, etc.
- Being taken for granted
- The disgusted looks that were just for me
- The teasing, insensitive jokes and put-downs
- All the missed birthdays and special occasions
- The repeated declines to my suggestions of things to do together
- A life devoid of friendships and laughter
If you are newly single or still struggling to get over someone, why not try making these lists for yourself? It just might help 🙂
