In thinking about the lyrics, thoughts and emotions in Don't, I have a problem relating.

I can't recall being dumped and still wanting that person. I've been offended, hurt, but I never pined for them after. I've always let go.

The closest feeling I can remember was being

Unable to let go of this...non-relationship. but it wasn't the deep pining of love lost, bc we never had a definable relationship. It was a will-they-won't-they. How much of that yearning was for unfulfilled promises, of things left incomplete, and how much was love-adjacent?

I'll never know, and in time, I let that go too.

What is it like to mourn a real love? It must be like the song.
