When Should You Let Go?

I had a dear-heart ask me,

"When do you know it's time to let go?"

So I am going to give a few choices; you know its time when he stops calling and returning your calls. When you talk to him and you get a feeling that he is just trying to find small talk. When he makes excuses on why he can't see you. Dumb excuses. When you feel tired and worn out. When you find somebody else to replace him. Any of these choices are a good starter.


Never give a man so much power to where he has you at home thinking about him 23/7, crying over him every minute, hating him every time his name is spoken, or even contacting him over and over again for no reason. This shifts the power in his favor and he knows that as long as he has you like this, he has you period. Let it go before it gets like this. Or even transfer the energy to him and have his ass moping over you, crying over you and calling you over and over. Baby, cause you are far more FABOLOUS than any person can fathom. If you want them to know steak is cooking, you gotta let them HEAR it sizzling.

And know that God allows things to happen for a reason, and people to come and go (and sometimes stay) for a reason. What you need to do is find that reason, deal with it, accept it and move on. Extract all the good and positive thing this man brought to you and the relationship and hold on to that. Let that empower you to forgive and move on. Keep the smile for public and deal with the hurt in private. And I assure you that everything will be better. Any thoughts?
