Here's something about moving on
It isn't pretending the other person doesn't exist
It isn't wiping out the memories
or deleting pictures and chats
that's too easy
It is in acknowledging their existence
being able to see them
hear their voice
look them in the eyes
and still feel nothing
neither love nor anger, not even sadness...
just nothing
It is in being able to still smile when thinking of the memories
and merely appreciate those moments
and regret not even a minute of it
because they were special
and taught you so much
It is in being able to face that person
and think "I don't want this anymore"
That's when you can truly say
that you have genuinely moved on
