A short YouTube monologue by Francisco Javier Ortega addressing feelings after a breakup. The speaker challenges the listener’s tendency to interpret a partner’s lack of fighting as a sign of personal deficiency or lost 'one true love,' and reframes the event as possibly indicating the person wasn’t right—opening the possibility of finding someone who will consistently choose them.
So right now, more than likely, what's happening is you are making this situation mean the fact that they did not fight for you. You are making it mean that you weren't enough to fight for. And you're also making it mean that you lost the love of your life, that you lost your person, that you lost your partner that was supposed to be there with you. Through everything, you are attaching the identity of the one of the perfect partner to someone who is choosing you. What if this means that that was not the right person? Maybe it doesn't mean that you're not good enough. And maybe it doesn't mean that you lost the love of your life and the person that's supposed to be with you forever. But what if it just simply means that now you have the ability to find the person that will always choose you?
