I know I said it already, but this time I promise, it's the last one. Even though I'm not very good at conclusions (ask my thesis supervisor), I did want to write a fitting concluding chapter to this story. And I wanted to thank you all, all 41 of you, strangers that I'll probably never … Continue reading Day 510: The End

Day 447: Test Passed
So it's been a week since I met up with my ex and I needed a little time to process everything. But for me, writing is always a part of processing, so here goes. To be honest, it was fun! It was good to see him, talk to him, be in his presence. I dare … Continue reading Day 447: Test Passed
Day 435: The Ultimate Test
Happy New Year!! There's something magical about January, isn't there? Anything feels possible. I feel as if 2021 is going to be even more transformative than 2020 was, for everyone. But to truly begin anew, one has to leave the past in the past. And guess who popped back into my life a few weeks … Continue reading Day 435: The Ultimate Test
Day 365: Happy Anniversary
I promised I'd write again on the one-year-after-the-break-up anniversary, and I am a woman of my word, so here goes. We've officially come full circle. And I mean that in the most literal sense. I started dating my ex on October the 26th in 2017. We broke up October the 26th in 2019. And now … Continue reading Day 365: Happy Anniversary
Bonus post: App-roast-eation
Just for the fun of it, I decided to write an appreciation/roast post. How'd you like my pun? 😀 Because I thought it was hilarious. Anyways, this post is not meant to insult or, alternatively, to glorify. Its sole purpose is reflection. As miss Grande so wisely said: "Thank you, next." Appreciation Ex #1 Thank … Continue reading Bonus post: App-roast-eation
Day 194: Circles, squares and puzzle pieces
Well, we did it! We've hit the half year broken up mark! Yes, we. I feel like you're with me on this journey. Those of you I know and those I don't. Thanks for making it so far with me. We actually passed this little anniversary a while ago, but I still wanted to acknowledge … Continue reading Day 194: Circles, squares and puzzle pieces
Day 157: More revelations
A few days ago I wrote my fifth letter for my ex. We've been broken up for 5 months now. As I was writing I noticed my tone was becoming slightly angry. It started off by irritation about how I'm still so trapped in not being able to forget him, but at a certain point … Continue reading Day 157: More revelations
Day 93: Breaking free
As happens when you're going through a break up, I've been having some epiphanies lately. I came across a podcast on which advice was asked for getting over someone you still like or maybe even still love. A few things were mentioned and since every person is differently wired, it would make sense that not … Continue reading Day 93: Breaking free
Day 38: Starting to let go
Last Thursday I performed at an Open Mic. Earlier I had come to the conclusion I should go outside more often. I've been stuck in my room for the most part of last month, partly because of my thesis, partly because I usually prefer my own company to that of others. But as easy as … Continue reading Day 38: Starting to let go
