Experiencing both better and worse expands your emotional range and helps you move on

To genuinely move past a relationship, you need to experience things that are both better and worse than what you had. If your emotional range is narrow, a relationship that sat somewhere in the middle becomes neutral and stops meaning much to you. The same logic applies from the other direction: many women experience bad relationships, and when a good man comes along offering only positive things, they constantly compare upward because they have no reference point for worse. You need the full spectrum of experience to properly contextualize and release what you had.
