melissa123 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 So my ex broke up with me about 4and a half months ago. He left me for a beautiful blonde girl studying to be a doctor who used to be my good friend. I havent heard from them since he ran off with her. My heart broke very badly. My problem is they are both going to the world champs together in a few weeks. They are always on the news and in the paper together. Just before I logged in here they were on the news together talking about their relationship and how their going to worlds bla bla bla And i guess it finally got me this time. Ive tried SOOO dam hard to be strong and to not let it break me but this time it really got me. Im here crying my eyes out How do I cope with having to see this all the time. Shes perfect, so beautiful and used to be a good friend of mine. Now shes with my ex and they are all over tv and in the papers and my heart is shreding everytime I have to see it. They are soooooooo happy and i cant take it much longer! help!
Peter_pan Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 ouch that would suck so much so sorry to hear that the only options i see that you have are unless you already have goneno contact. and then another thing would be to try and avoid news read and things like that for at least 30 days. if you dont want to hide away from the world or feel like you shouldnt (which you have every right to) i would start trying now, really hard to just look at him and say its his loss, and he wasnt the person you thought he was
socialight Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 consider that their breakup will also be on tv as well. world champs of what by the way?
Lizzie60 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Huh???? He's your ex.. right?.. so he can go out with whoever he wants.. right? Whether they go to the world champs together, whether they are in the news, etc... just don't go where they go.. don't read the newspapers when they're talking about them... Avoid anything talks about them.. simple. How do I cope with having to see this all the time. Who says you have to see this all the time.. Sorry if I'm harsh.. but methink you're in a 'pity-party' mode... time to move on.
motive2002 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I wonder how Jennifer Aniston dealt with Brad and Angelina being on the cover of tabloids constantly.. and on television. I couldn't even imagine. I guess once you take your ex off the pedestal you've put them on, and finally decide for yourself that they weren't a good thing for you at all, the things you see in the paper and so on is something you can laugh at. My ex isn't anyone famous, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't have a run-in, or hear about something she said or did whether I wanted to or not. Once I finally realized that she was never going to be any good for me I was able to let go. I looked at the past, and how awful she made me feel and decided that there's no way I could have ever dealt with that on a long term basis. In short, thank God she dumped me. I felt horrible at first but now I have a much better perspective on it. You will too, in time. Have faith and hang in there!
