'I deserve better' : 34 Times Women Realized They Deserve More Than the Bare Minimum

Breakups are never easy. The process of letting go of someone you care about can be painful and incredibly heartbreaking. But sometimes, a breakup is necessary to help you realize your worth and what you truly deserve in a relationship.
