Mending a Broken Heart Isn't Always Easy

In the world we live in it seems as if nothing is lasting anymore. The cars we drive are made of mostly plastic and other synthetic fibres, the clothes we spend money on seem to tear or fall apart within months of purchase, and it has been quoted numerous times that 50 percent of marriages end in divorce.

This does not give those who are dating much hope either. It is hard to put yourself out there and be vulnerable with people as it is, and with the divorce rate so high one can only imagine that the break up rate is even higher. For any of us who have gone through a break up, we know that when our heart gets involved it is not an easy thing to mend. When people start dating these days, they tend to forget some important things that can safeguard them from being hurt or crushed if a break up does happen.

The first thing that people need to do before stepping into a relationship of any kind would be to know their self fully. Do you know your likes and dislikes well enough that you won't "change" them just because of who you are with? Do you know what makes you, YOU? If not, you need to take the time to get to know yourself. For if you do not know yourself it makes it nearly impossible to get to know someone else. Not only that but you will tend to become the person you are seeing rather than let them get to know the person you are.

This will not only help with getting to know the person you are seeing, it also helps them get to know you and it helps after the break up so you can move on. If you spend a portion of your life acting like someone else and then you are left to spend the rest of your life without that person it becomes difficult to move on because you are left not knowing who you are anymore. This is a scary concept, yet it happens far too often. Two people are courting for a few years and never really took the time to get to know each other but they became the other person in the process; after the break up occurs they are both left frantically searching for their lost identity.

To reiterate, taking that first step of knowing yourself fully will help to guard you from losing yourself if the relationship ends. The task of mending a broken heart is not easy yet it is possible if you know yourself and you understand that all good things come with time and patience.
