There Is No Way You Can Reach That Planet

Have you ever been in one of those moments where the more you try to understand something, the less sense it makes? Like your brain is in a foggy escape room and every clue just leads to more confusion. Congratulations, you’ve officially entered the emotional Bermuda Triangle.

Let me set the scene: someone does something terrible to you. Out of nowhere. With no obvious reason, no villainous monologue, no dramatic background music—just straight-up shady behavior. Maybe they lie. Maybe they manipulate. Maybe they throw you under the metaphorical bus, smile while doing it, then casually ask if you want to carpool to brunch. Charming, right?

You try logic. Empathy. Boundaries. Deep breathing. All the therapeutic tools in the belt. But somehow, no matter what approach you take, you’re still the one left confused, hurt, and emotionally side-swiped like you walked into a space you didn’t realize was toxic—until you were already coughing up glitter-infused gas fumes of narcissism.

So, is there anything you can do about it?

Well, yes. One thing. And it’s important. Maybe the most important.

You need to remember: you can’t reach that planet.

Because—brace yourself for this astronomical truth—not every planet is worth landing on.

Some people live on a planet where they’re the sun, the moon, and the stars—and you, dear reader, are just expected to orbit quietly, clapping for their glow while getting burned every time you come too close.

And the wildest part? Sometimes we still try. We build rockets of hope, engineer apologies, launch boundaries like satellites… only to realize: this planet has no oxygen. No empathy. No mutual understanding. Just a looping broadcast of “Me, Me, Me FM,” playing hits like Why Your Feelings Don’t Matter and How I’m the Real Victim Here (Remix).

You might be tempted to keep trying. You might think, “Maybe if I just say it differently. Maybe if I explain how much it hurt. Maybe if I show them I care.” But ask yourself—do you really want to spend your emotional budget trying to land somewhere you were never meant to breathe?

Here's the lesson, plain and simple: not all connections are reachable. And that’s okay.

Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is accept that someone lives in a galaxy you’re not interested in visiting. And honestly? Their atmosphere never supported your growth anyway.

Let them be the ruler of their own rocky terrain.

And you? You build your own planet. One with breathable air, honest communication, reciprocal care, and zero tolerance for gaslighting gravity.

Because you, my friend, were not made to shrink for someone else’s small world.

You were made to soar. Let go of unreachable planets… and Make It Possible.
