From Lover to Leaver: A Journey Through Trauma, Strength & Self-Discovery

From Lover to Leaver: A Journey Through Trauma, Strength & Self-Discovery I wasn’t always like this. Once, I believed in forever. In promises. In the kind of love that stayed — even when it hurt. I gave all I had to someone who made me feel like I was too much and yet, never enough. Trauma changed me. Not in one night — but in quiet, unnoticed ways. My laughter faded. My heart closed off. I went from waiting for a reply to blocking out emotions. From hoping they’d change to knowing I had to leave. I became a leaver — not because I didn’t love, but because I finally loved myself more. Now, I don’t chase. I don’t beg for clarity. I don’t fight for space in someone’s world. Because healing taught me: Walking away is also an act of love — but for yourself. If you’re in this phase too — torn between what was and what should be — just know: it’s okay to leave. And one day, you’ll look back not with regret, but with pride. #FromLoverToLeaver #HealingJourney...
