WE'RE NOT REALLY STRANGERS Relationship Expansion Pack by (Forgiveness)

The Breakup Edition of these cards gave me a lot to think about and helped me start my journey to healing. It wasn’t a bad breakup, and honestly we’re still kind of off-and-on, but the questions in the cards were thought-provoking and the journal is nice to write in and jot down these thoughts. The Breakup Kit comes in a sleek red box with a journal, pen, and set of cards, and would make a good gift for a friend or loved one going through a breakup. The cards can be used solo, but can also be used to encourage deep conversations with a partner or friends! At less than $20, I think it would be a thoughtful gift to show support for your loved one.

This is a small deck of cards (small playing card size) printed with questions - one on each card- no images, no affirmations, no additional instructions or suggestions, etc- - to get your brain going towards working through some harder issues. I like these question cards better than affirmations because you can come up with your own ideas on how to work through specific issues without just just putting some "high vibe" band-aid over feelings. I do wish the cards were a bit more creatively produced- there's nothing wrong with them, just that I have some cards in my collection that are similar but are on a slightly nicer cream colored cardstock with a charcoal gray ink or something similarly minimal and subtle and in a nicer box (these are in a not so durable tuck box). I know these cards go along with the entire "We're Not Really Strangers" line, so they fit in perfectly, but they do tend to get lost among my own collection of card decks, and it's a shame, because they are really thought provoking and useful.

I have always really loved We're Not Really Strangers - I have the original card game and the self love card pack and just ordered the Breakup Kit. This kit came with a journal, cards with prompts, and a pen all in a thick red cardboard box for storage. The prompts are amazing for self reflection and the set it packaged so well to take out and spread out and read. The only issue I have is that the cards are free floating and you don't have the option to really put them in the journal. I used tape to tape them into the journal and then write out my response and journal based on the prompt but I do wish the journal had slots or even provided tape so you could tape the prompt you are replying to into the journal. Outside of that, no complaints, this is so great to heal after a berak up and work through your emotions!

Honestly, this kit is amazing.... The prompts really made me think about my feelings and process things in a way I wasn’t expecting. It’s a mix of tough questions and some lighter ones, and the wildcards add a bit of unpredictability, which kept things interesting. It’s great for some solo reflection, but also a good way to have deep conversations with yourself or even friends.

This is my third order from We're Not Strangers and I'm happy with the things I've received so far. I have some work to do around forgiveness and just didn't know where to start, so this deck is great. There are a lot of questions to reflect on. I don't know that they'll bring me to a place of forgiveness, but for me they are about just shifting my energy into a more proactive space. I'd rather be actively working on forgiveness than passively wallowing in bitterness. I've told myself I need to just start practicing forgiveness even if I don't totally feel it yet, and these cards are helping me to stay focused on getting that in motion. I think it's a great deck to start working on the hard stuff we want to avoid in life!
