Not everyone who enters your life is meant to stay. Some come just to teach you something— About love, pain, growth, or yourself. They make you believe in forever, Only to leave when the chapter ends. And at first, it hurts. You wonder why they came if they were going to leave. You replay every moment, searching for a reason. But eventually, you realize— They weren't meant to be your destination. They were just a lesson. A lesson in: Recognizing red flags. Setting boundaries. Knowing your worth. Letting go without bitterness. So thank them silently, Not for staying, But for teaching you what you needed to learn before the right person arrives.
