Are You Letting Go Or Giving Up?

Life may give you many options when it comes to decision making, but one day you have to face a difficult situation of whether to choose between letting go and giving up. Are you letting go or giving up?


You may often hear about letting go and giving up when it comes to romantic relationships and seem to be the hardest things to carry in with love. Have you ever wondered about the difference between letting go and giving up? When would you let go? When would you give up?

Let go, when there is no more spark and
Enthusiasm in your relationship.
This may be a very tough decision to make yet if
The action could bring you a peaceful mind then
It is the right decision that leads you to progress.
Never ever mind of the opinions of others.
Go forth freely with a brave heart.

Give yourself more time to carry on
Or else you would end up suffering.


Give up, when you are too weak in a relationship.
It is a matter of rejecting things that
Violently harms your
Emotional, mental, and physical well-being.

Unite with your very own self and
Persevere for more of self-love that you truly deserve.


But, are you letting go or giving up?

When it comes to love, between letting go and giving up, letting go connotes a positive attitude in which you are taking away of something that is not beyond your control, and it would always depend upon the situation. On the other hand, giving up connotes a negative attitude in which you are already surrendering something that you cannot fight for.

Personally, I have both experienced letting go and giving up on my past relationship. The decision was so tough that I have cried an ocean of tears yet I am in favor of thinking on the brighter side of life to move on and carry on come what may.

It is not all about a weaker self but it was because of the reason that I am very much exhausted and tired of what is happening all around my life, so I really have to let go and give up in order to attain inner peace, and to end up my agony as well. I realized that I need to have pity for my suffering self, and that I really have to love myself more.

Remember that we all deserve self-love. When we either let go or give up in a relationship, it does not always mean that we do not love him or her anymore, but every so often, there are really times that despite having persistence and endurance, we just simply end up everything in a blink of time, most especially when we cannot carry on, yet with great hopes that all with be alright in the right time.

In a relationship, the number of years and time spent together before marriage does not really matter. Although it really takes time to know your partner very well. However, there are also relationships, only spent a few time before marriage, and end up being successful together. I firmly believe that a strong commitment is a important ingredient. When this fades away, no one could stand up until the end.

I have known a friend, an artist and a live streamer, I met in an online community. After meeting him for a long time, he confessed to me that he was previously in a long-term relationship for more than ten years yet end up broke about two years ago.

As he said, he already thought the she was the one. They have been together since college days but two years ago, after being ten years in a relationship, they did not end up into marriage, but have decided both to let go and give up on the relationship. He may fail to give me the specific reason but he told me that they have to fix things for each other in life for things are not working as what has planned, and that this was something not beyond their control, so they really have to part ways.

There was one time when we joined video call together in an online streaming community, his past love was there, although he felt quite embarrassed, he had no choice, but to handle the situation with grace, for the girl was also working for the streaming community being on the development team, and was suddenly invited to be a guest. So, I was just smiling when their friends were teasing at them. I have not spoken up a word and just respected them and their decision as well.

Another painful life story I have witnessed was being in marriage for more than twenty years with many kids but then ended up for good. As we know that all things in life are uncertain, there is truly a need to accept life as it is. It may be very difficult, yet whether we like it or not, we need to realize that every life story is either happiness or despair.

But then, things are not so easy as what others may perceive it. Things are not so easy to fix when you both know about what had happened yesterday. Both partners have already endured a lot in their relationship before, and I know that it takes more time for the wounds and stitches to heal. Perhaps only time could mend a broken heart.

In conclusion, there is no such thing as perfect relationship. In as much as we would love to see perfection in social media when it comes to love, but in a real world, love is a bitter sweet taste of happiness, sorrow, and pain. But the decision always lies in your hand of how to handle a tough situation. And now, how is your relationship with your special someone? Are you letting go or giving up?

I released a huge sigh of relief after reading this inspiring piece of article... I could feel your confusion honestly!... This is not pity whatever comment on your post, it's a real thing!...

Forgive me I screenshot the end of your post that's thee conclusion part!... It's nothing but an absolute truth 💯

Love is sweet, romantic, lovely call it all names it deserves it but when it comes to making decisions gosh it affects you and totally weigh you down! Infact it got to a point I started yelling because my partner wasn't understanding what I was saying and finally got the point of can we just be friends please....?

This is for the sake of my sanity and peace.... You see I value myself and my life ! I guess am in the wrong place with him and now am at peace with myself...

Of course give it chances, as many as you want but once my grace gets to the limit I cut off everything, I don't care anymore!

Nice reading this piece @Talecharm, always remember you are stronger than you think! Ciao

It may be very difficult to let go and give up, but through proper weighing of things of what would be good or not for ourselves, somehow the suffering becomes at ease when we choose to the right and wise thing. Above all, self-love is all we deserve. Thank you so much dear friend, Sam for your heartwarming remarks.

Goodmorning! This article really hits me so hard, the feeling of giving up and letting go is so hard and it's really something a hard decision to make. But for me, there are truly reasons why sometimes we need to give up and already let go of that something or someone. you're right that kettung go doesn't mwan that we don't love them anymore but if letting go is the only thing to make it better, you will do it even if it hurts you a thousand times.

Grateful of sharing your valuable words dear friend, Teacher Jen. Very much appreciated.

Letting go and giving up may be easy to perceive but in reality both of them are really the hardest most especially when you still love the person. Sometimes, it is not that you do not love him or her anymore, but there are really some things that are not beyond our control and our only option is either to let go or give up.

good morning friend. in terms of relationship I haven't experienced it yet but in my opinion I will make both give up and let go. Give up the relationship if you are no longer healthy and you are just fighting and Let go of the person because maybe he is no longer happy with you or you are no longer happy with him.

I so agree with you dear friend, susana. Thank you so much for your opinion. Like what you have said that we should give up an unhealthy relationship and let go of a relationship which no longer gives you the energy and spark to go on. One just needs to accept life as it is and have the wisdom to bear with the pain yet must always think on the brighter side of life.

Yes, you are right. Letting go and giving up would always depend upon the situation. But if someone is already exhausted and tired of everything, then there is no more reason to prolong the agony. Self-love could save anyone. Perhaps it would always be better to let go and give up if things could not be fixed anymore to find peace of mind and serenity in life as well.

If I should make any comment about love now it will violent my rule of not believing in love and I kinda don't want that to change because I sometimes seriously think that I might be the toxic one in the relationship and that I know I won't be good at it and sometimes even jealous when others are doing well in it and you should be a relationship chancellor too because you sure do like someone that can make it right in a relationship.

Our love needed a big compromise. When we didn't compromise then we didn't get success in it. For me giving up was best option in love. I want to giving on but fate was against me I have to give up due to toxic type nature.

Yes dear flipper, I so understand you about a thing that our love needs a big compromise. Giving up is so hard but if we are already suffering, then we should be there for ourselves. We should be there to love ourselves more more than anyone else. And that when things get very toxic, let us always choose to move toward the brighter side of life.

There is a difference between giving up and letting go. Letting go is an endless release where you have come to accept the things you cannot change while giving up means you are done with the things that stresses you and this is relative.

Whatever is not making you happy, it's okay to let it go. We need wisdom to accept the things we can't change and know when to push and when to let go.

Thank you for sharing your wise thoughts dear friend, Ola. Yes you are right, and I totally agree with you.

Perhaps in a relationship, we could not deny the fact that things are not always as sweet as cakes, for there would always be times when things turn into a bitter gourd and all we could do is to accept life as it is. Like you have said that we really need the wisdom to accept the things that we cannot change, those things that are truly beyond our control. At the end of the day, what matters most is self-love when one is already suffering. Self-love, we all deserve it.

Letting go, that is more on someone to give him free and take away from our lives. On the hand, giving up is more on ourselves that we give freedom to ourselves of letting others go out of our lives. That's how I understand. Thank you my friend Talecharm.

Those words are truly right and I so agree with you dear friend, Han. But between letting go and giving up, letting go sounds more of a positive attitude, to be away or take away something that is not beyond your control.

Yes, it is true. A relationship can have ebbs and flows. But if I don't get the love I give in return or if the other person doesn't deserve the love I give, I give up.

Self-love is more important dear friend, man. Really so hard to give up most especially when you are still in love but if there is no other way out, to give up must be the last resort. And that let us just think of the positive sides of life that everything just happens for a reason. If someone is taken away from your life, maybe someone better would come to make your life happier once more.

When it comes to love, all things seem to be very hard. It is a pain that is very difficult to heal. But then at the end of the day, you would come to realize that the person who had hurt you is till the one who could mend your broke heart if and only if the situation can still be fixed. But then, when both have parted ways, I could always imagine the wounds and stitches. I so agree with you dear friend, Jumper that we really have to keep fate.

in my opinion, I think so sometimes we give over 100% but we did not succeed but we should not give up if we fail that means we are going on the right path just try and try again until we get what we want. in my life I experienced that I am working on a project and I failed to complete that project and I give up after trying multiples times with my full attention and concentration I give my 100% but I failed to complete that project but I do not give up I learn from my mistake and after 1 year finally I succeed.

Perhaps giving up must be our last resort in life when all things seem to be in agony. I so understand your situation dear friend, its. Sometimes, there are things that are beyond our control. When we would give up, a light would teach us our mistakes and I know that it is only through the worst that we would learn the best, as experience is our best teacher.

I would say that letting go sometimes can be so painful, but at the same if it were mainly to be so, there's no too ways about it. There are most things that we have to give up on. When that particular thing is beyond our own control we need to give the host and rest our minds.
