It’s funny how the transition from a bad relationship or breakup can lead to sugar. The road from breakup to healing is paved with pastries and cake. Yes, quite often chocolate is better than love.
Especially when love isn’t on the menu anymore.
After a bad marriage leads to divorce, or a hot and heavy relationship explodes in your face, there’s food. Tears turn to smiles for a moment. Finally you can take a deep breath again and feel normal. It’s a temporary fix and overeating won’t help as time goes on, but for now it feels so right when everything else feels wrong. So indulge yourself just this once, because by tomorrow, self-control is back on the menu. But hope and acceptance is only a mouthful away.
You will survive.
But for now, you are calming your anger with cake. Your heart is healing on chocolate.
And there’s no one there to judge you...
