Lao Tzu has wisdom to offer from Taoism. How do you know when it’s time to let someone go? Saying goodbye to someone you once loved is an incredibly difficult thing to do. Even if your relationship wasn’t perfect, it can be so heart-wrenching that you may avoid it altogether, often at the expense of your well-being. It’s common, at the end of a relationship, to see your partner through rose-colored glasses. You unconsciously ignore the problems right in front of you, finding ways to justify and excuse their unfair or unkind behavior. We all like to think we know better, but when we’re truly attached to someone, we all struggle to let go. We all hold onto things and people that are not good for us. And we all hide from the feelings of heartbreak that await us on the other side.

They should bear in mind this word of wisdom, Guilt about leaving is no reason to stay. If I stay I'll be in this same unhappy position ten years from now. This is not the only other person in the world.

Better to be the dumper than the dumpee. The dumper has the power. I was the dumpee. So glad to be rid of her. The new beginning was euphoric.

Hmm… I have never ever been in such a position that I should have let go of some "one", so I almost feel relieved that I was spared of all this trauma. Stay single, suffer less!

It's always hard in the beginning, but as the time goes by, you start feeling it was a weight off your shoulders.
