Dear Shelby,

If it is beneficial to you, I offer my empathy and support. This is a supremely hard experience. For whatever value it may have for you, I mourn with you.

I wish you love and fulfillment.

Fond Regards,

Eva

Hey Shelby,

I read this week and last week's articles and want to give you a hug.

But you are right in your last paragraph. I learned that sometimes we don't get closure, but we move forward anyways. I relate to this, because I had to cut a lot of people out and yup what you said. I don't look on their social media. I don't try to re-open doors that are closed. I don't wonder what they are up to. I've built happiness with new people. For my own good, I detached from people that made it clear I or my friendship wasn't important to them.

You said it best. Sometimes leaving the past in the past is the best thing you can do for yourself.

You got this.

Your Bridesmaid Bestie Alesha
