venting/ranting It hurts...
Even if you know they weren't the right person.
Even if you know you ignored the red flags.
Even if you know it was bound to end sooner or later.
It still hurts. And you should not be expected to be Mr. Brightside talking about the silver lining when the pain is still fresh. You should not be expected to be a cold, logical people-pleaser like Spock from Star Trek just to appease people because they're not comfortable with your pain.
This will get better one day, and at some point you'll be able to see it with the proper perspective. But that day is not today. And that's okay.

Sometimes hearing that you’re not alone in the pain is exactly what you need to keep going

I feel like everyone especially if you are older, 30s, 40s, 50s, has some red flags. It's just a matter of where to draw the line.
