"Maybe the happy ending is...just...moving on..."

But sometimes we're so focused on finding our happy ending we don't learn how to read the signs. How to tell from the ones who want us and the ones who don't, the ones who will stay and the ones who will leave. And maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe... it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending is... just... moving on. Or maybe the happy ending is this, knowing after all the unreturned phone calls, broken-hearts, through the blunders and misread signals, through all the pain and embarrassment you never gave up hope. - He's Just Not That Into You (the movie)

Although I watched the movie only once, this quote is quite meaninful, yet I question this quote at times too. If my happy ending doesn't include a guy, how do I move on without feeling like I need to be in a relationship? That in order for me to be completely happy, I need to find the other half of me, someone that's out there to complement me and share in my happiness? On my own, I'm picking up the pieces and starting over...but it's not easy. Maybe the happy ending is...just...moving on. But what if we can't move on right now? We are stuck in this neverending vicious cycle in which we'll be miserable...and what if I'm giving up hope....because the person out there for me I've already found and have had to say goodbye...
