      I have one friend who got divorced. It was difficult for him since it was during COVID and their 2-year-old daughter was involved, but now he’s thriving and super well-adjusted. I think some people just refuse to come to terms with things beyond their control (namely the people in the pic).

      Yeah same. As far as I’m concerned turning your own failed relationship into a hate vendetta is pretty weak shit. Do people really not just see this as extremely pathetic insecurity? Do people really not understand that letting a bad experience change you only gives it even more power over you?

      Being “stoic” or whatever doesn’t mean being a whiny little piss baby. It’s kind of the opposite. There’s nothing weaker or more cringe than letting a breakup own you.
