you live, you learn. dude, these things happen and life's too fucking short to brood. you'll figure out that there's more to life than tom, and that you've spent a great deal of your time trying to relive this relationship with him in your head and heart. when i broke up with jamie, i figured that i could devote far more time to making me happy. scarlette's told me so many hundreds and thousands of times to appreciate yourself and make some time for yourself, because only you can make yourself happy.

i knew you'd come to the realisation that you would have to let go. you know, letting go is hard, but you make it easier for yourself with positive self-talk.

if you think about it, everyone changes your life in many ways. yes, he's been there for you, for better and for worse but you cannot hold onto these things forever. you are who you are because of all the decisions you've made and the people you've surrounded yourself with. love changes you a lot less than you think - you'll find that with the next person, you will have to re-adjust yourself and that the dynamics will be very different with him, as it was with tom.

i know i'm just rambling and you're probably gonna shit on my grave for everything i said, but hey. you'll be fine. all you need is chicks flicks, champagne and chocolate cake.
