You see old relationships more clearly

If you’ve never taken a long hiatus from dating, then much of your dating life has probably been a blur. When your “solution” to heartache from one entanglement is to simply throw yourself into another one, you never give yourself the time to analyze what happened in the last one. Maybe your feeling has been, “Well, that was just the wrong person, so now it’s time to try a different person,” but you haven’t stopped to ask, “Did I have any role in how that played out? Is there any accountability I can be taking? Is there perhaps a way I’d like to do things differently next time?” You’re usually too busy already in the “next time” to ask those questions.
