replicator Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Today was the first day in many weeks that I didn't feel the stinging pain in my chest. No heart ache today. For those that have followed my story, I was a pretty needy fellow, and loved my ex a whole bunch. Wasn't able to get over her, until I found out she was with another man. It hurt me so bad to find out, but really it's helped me get over the hump. I felt anger, but it's subsided. I haven't forgiven her, but I've realized that I'm going to survive this. My hope to have her back is gone, and my ideal vision of her is shattered. I owe a lot to LS for letting me express in ways I could never do in person. Really, it's been a journey for me. I lost myself in my ex, and now I'm in the process of finding myself. It is a rewarding experience, and just goes to show that in the face of adversity and misfortune, there is always something to be drawn from it. I'll be here for a while, and I'm not completely ok - but just wanted to express my sincere gratitude to all those folks in here that helped me with the most difficult times that I've faced in my life. Thank you.

Nemo Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Never get bored of their music. Try getting bored to their music. For some reason, the rhythm works well for that sort of thing.
foxh1234 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Glad to hear your feeling better Rep, I am also feeling alot better as of late. We will be alright.
bill1234 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Thank you for posting this. After I read it I looked back at your earlier posts, and while your entire story seems to have been deleted, I gather that your breakup was way, way worse than mine. And yet today you're feeling OK, and that gives me hope. Thank you.
Nevermind Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Glad you're better! It's a long way, isn't it? You'll be happy again, and happier than you've been with her, sooner than you think!
ButtHead Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 That's really great to hear. I think people like us with huge hearts will find someone who's willing to take it. We know how to love. Someone will recognize us and we'll be better off.
Nemo Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 I think people like us with huge hearts will find someone who's willing to take it. Having a huge heart is great, as long as the rest of your romantic gear is in proportion.

When you're hurt, you need to grieve, and you need to go through the process of examining your feelings, and releasing your emotions one way or another. I'm not over it, but I've made the decision not to wallow in the pain. When I feel down and hurt, I don't resist and let myself feel it. Even cry if I have to, but then I'll just pick myself back up and keep going. It's tough, and requires effort to move on. I don't think time alone is able to truely heal someone who is emotionally devastated by loss/betrayal.
