john 07 Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 My my ex broke it off after 6 years and a week later shes with someon else. Im heart broken but i know I have to move on. How the heck can she move on so quick after 6years and 7 years of friendship?? Anyways people have been saying Im going to be a stonger person after all this is over. What is it meaning by stronger person?? Does this mean a more cold hearted person?? Does this mean Ill be more self confident?? I dont understand the stronger person part.
MattNZ Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I translate it as 'what doesn't kill you will only make you stronger'. That is to say, yes, you've been knocked down, but if you can get up again, then you will be stronger. You can learn from all experiences in life negative or positive. When you meet someone else, you will be able to bring more to the relationship. I'm sure all of us on here who have been dumped have learnt something from our experienes. These make us grow and allow us to be more loving to the next lucky person who meets us.
LakesideDream Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 John, It's never easy to be the "dumpee". It always includes feelings of betrayal, and failure. There is no easy way to recover. I am told it takes time, I believe it takes another powerful love in your life. Look on the bright side. You could have been replaced before you were actually dumped, like so many of us lurking here.
Icantletgo Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I'm sorry for everything you are feeling. My ex of 3 years (not as long as yours of course) left me for someone else. there were days when I couldn't get out of bed..i couldn't face people. But I'm okay now. I just think of my great, vast future. Life's too short to sit and cry. that's what i've been doing for months. But we are going to be stronger because when you look back at the situation, you walked out of it being the good guy. You walked out of it with your head held high. So be proud and try to move on. Good luck.
Yamaha Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 She's not over you after a 6 year relationship. Many people think you need to dive into another one to move on and forget the last. Some feel you need to get over the past before moving on to the next. You have to do what feels right for you but I do feel you never really get over someone until there is someone else to attach those feeling to. Making you stronger means that what you have gained in this relationship experience you will apply to your next. You will become stronger emotionally and be more mature to handle problems and deal with them (as well as weeding out someone that doesn't fit your profile ). Life is one big learning experience.
MikeC Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Can almost guarentee she is not over you this quickly. You see, in order to heal faster, some people get together with someone else so they don't feel as bad. This can appear as moving on, when in fact they have not. In my opinion, go out and DATE! You will see that there are ALOT of great women out there.
beyourselft Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 John, I have been in a similar situation with my ex-girlfriend. We broke up and 2 weeks later she started dating someone else. I felt very bad, that was 3 moths ago, but now I feel much better. I told my selft, she is not good for me, I deserve someone better. Good Luck
