Sadcakesleo Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Hey everybody, feeling really down. My ex and I have been on a break since mid Jan. She said that we would try to work it out but she didn't try very hard. She's 21 and I'm 23 and we live together. Anyways it was working for awhile, the phsyical stuff was there but none of the emotional stuff. Basically she just got caught up with going out alot now and I could'nt handle it. Sorry guys I am kinda at a lost for words, I don't really know what to say except that its over and I am really sad. Our lease ends in July and we can't afford to break it early so we are going to continue living together untill July. Its going to suck big time but I have no choice. The hardest part is I will still know when shes coming home or what shes doing on the internet and it drives me crazy, seeing her to and knowing I can't touch her or be with her. It's going to be really hard and I don't know if I can do it. Any advice or support would be greatly appreciated. If you guys want more info let me know.
AvgJoeDoe Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 All i can tell you is to behave polite and try to do your own things too. I guess thats a very hard thing to endure. Having her so close yet worlds apart. But be strong and try to do things to distract yourself get some dancing lessons or a gym to workout and boost your confidence.
D-Lish Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I know where you're at to some degree. I had to live in the house with my ex husband during our divorce as we waited for our house to sell so we could move. We did have a friendship though- so as much as it was difficult and slightly awkward, we got through it. I like the advice about doing your own thing. That is how I dealt with it. I went away on weekend trips, I joined a gym, and spent a lot of time at my parents and with my friends. It helped that I wasn't sitting at home interacting with him like we were room mates.... because after being lovers- it's hard to be room mates. Yes, be polite, and try to find activities outside the home for the time being. Do you have a place you can go to if things get a little to much to handle? I did spend nights at my friends and parents when I felt a little overwhelmed by things.
