Does breaking up get easier?

You would think like any thing in life, the more practice you have the better you get.
So does breaking up with someone get any easier?

I still rely on the staples of getting through these things: tears, wine and good friends.
They all serve very well embarking on the new flight of single-dom.
But I don’t really think I have ‘breaking up’ fully nailed.

I still ask myself: Is it me? Will I be alone for the rest of my life?

And the older I get, the more complex it becomes.
Should I learn to accept that the ‘right package’ won’t come along and take what I can get?
Or should I keep window-shopping until I see the right thing?

When do I need to think of myself reaching the used-by-date?
And should I start looking back on the past to investigate any patterns of behaviour that aren’t serving me well?

I think the more you break up the more questions arise.
There is timing – catching the right flight.
There is the issue of baggage – you have a defined limit you can take on any flight.
And there is the destination – is it a holiday stop-over or something more permanent.

Most importantly when is the right time to board?
And I am escaping or just giving myself a break?

So many questions…
At least on long-haul flights you can rely on the fact that they will provide alcohol and comfy socks…
