The Illusion of a Soulmate



It’s strange, isn’t it? To think you’ve found your soulmate. To truly believe that someone is going to be there for you, to be your partner, your support, your everything. You think they’re kind, good, the type of person you can trust with your whole heart. So, you give them everything. Every part of yourself, every ounce of hope you have left.

And then they throw it all away.

They turn their back on you, choosing something—or someone—that makes no sense to you. They walk away from what you thought was love. And you’re left wondering what it all meant. What it all was. It’s a heartache so deep, it feels like your soul is cracking under the weight of it.

I was in love—truly in love. I thought they were in love with me, too. We had so much fun together, shared so many moments that felt sacred. I thought we had a bond no one could break. And then, suddenly, they became this cold, distant person. They turned to casual flings, to a life so detached from the one we shared. It’s like they became a stranger, like the person I knew was replaced by someone I no longer recognize.

It makes me wonder if this is even the same world I was in before. Everything feels upside down. Nothing makes sense anymore. The reality I thought I lived in has unraveled, leaving me grasping for something solid, something real.

I don’t trust the world anymore. I don’t trust the people in it. It’s like everything is a lie. And so, I’m searching—searching for an inner strength, for something bigger than myself, bigger than anyone else. Something strong enough to hold me together because right now, I feel like I’m slipping.

I wonder if this is what hell feels like. If I’m living in my own personal version of it.
