Today I saw on Facebook that the ex who got married relatively quickly after we broke up is getting divorced & now I feel bad for kinda wishing he'd get divorced. Can anyone relate? 😐

Haha yea, but I don't feel one bit bad about it.

Look into learning more about practicing compassion and gratitude on a daily basis. It's a long road and it's ok to think it's hippie bullshit at first but it's very freeing in the end. Our egos are very powerful in controlling how we think and act but are very often to our own detriment. Hope you and your ex find the right partners for yourselves. I'm still looking for mine if/when he comes along and meanwhile I'm working on just being more self loving as well as loving of others and leaning in on my friends and family to enrich my life.

FCB1 hippie bullshit is completely underrated. If more people embraced everything you said, the world would be filled with happier humans. ✌️💛
