Honestly, when I first read your post I didn’t take it as the universe wants you to let go because you will never be together but instead let go temporarily. As in, let go of the need for your sp because first, it is unhealthy and you need to work on focusing on yourself, By doing so it will allow the universe to give you want you want, your sp!

Think about it. If you were to get what you wanted right now, your relationship would probably only end badly because you have some issues with attachment towards your sp. But if you let go and fix what could possibly be disastrous if you were to be with your sp right now, when you eventually do come together you will have the best possible chance for a great outcome with your sp.

I hope this helps and makes sense!
