Is it okay to feel awesome that your relationship is over?


Recommended Posts

I'm hoping Diezel will see this, 'cause I'm really thankful for trusting what he said. Too bad I still can't send PMs (does anybody knows when I'll be able to?!).

 

Okay, so I decided to break up with my boyfriend after catching him lying to me and a few (a lot) more stuff that made me realize I should move on. I like him still, we have great memories, but the bad moments are so much stronger that that's probably why I just feel utterly happy right now.

 

So it makes me wonder if that's okay. Every single guy who were not my boyfriend but that I was in love with and that for some reason I had to break up, afterwards I just felt very miserable - for months actually. This is a first. I'm so happy right now that I don't have to fear anything, or worry about anything, or be unsure whether he loves me or not... Idk, I just feel free and a lot better than I thought I'd feel.

 

Has this ever happened to any of you? Why and how did it go?

Yes, it has. But while there were times I was on a high, I sometimes would feel sad. It's not a bad thing when you feel that way but just the process of going through feelings that normally follow after an ending.

 

Enjoy your new found freedom!

I think u might be in for a crash down... The relief feeling will pass x

 

It will, but I'm fine now. The good memories will eventually show up, but the bad ones will stay there too so I'll stick to them to get through this guy. I still like him and that's why I know it will be hard sometimes, but just to know that I've regained motivation to do a lot of stuff, it already makes me see that I'm in a better position now.

Yes it has happened to me. Left my ex (my very first thread on LS, years old now) and I was over the moon until he - and I believe Phoe called it monkey branching or something? Then I wasn't ok. He messed me up when he did that. But the break up - I was over the moon with that! :laugh:

 

I am not going to be a "we told you so girl" girl. I'm just going to say I am glad you're happy now. And I think you did the right thing. :love:

 

Hugs.

I felt awesome after dumping my ex. Felt a sigh of relief, and didn't have to deal with her annoyances. Then I watched the movie 'HER', and immediately called her back, and said I love her. This is my current ex that dumped me.

 

Do not watch a sappy love movie immediately after dumping someone. If I hadn't, I might have moved on, and not truly fallen in love with her again. Now I'm signed up to this site, and reading the hundreds of threads to help me cope. :(
