I guess I'm rebounding, too

I talked a lot about RG--Rebound Guy--in my last few threads, but now I know that I'm deserving of that abbreviated moniker as well, as a girl, of course.

 

Thanksgiving is tomorrow, and Christmas/New Year's seems to be right around the corner. My ex and his family were a huge part of these holidays for me for nearly the last 2 years, and this year is the first that I won't have that. I couldn't help the memories coming to the surface and I bawled my eyes out today. Additionally, I know that I crushed him even more with our second breakup and that he's been super-depressed about it (friends who still have him on Facebook informed me) and I cried about that too. I still feel horrible about it, like it's my fault, even though I know I shouldn't be--how he processes things has nothing to do with me. I know that splitting from him for good was the absolute best thing for both of us, but I've been taking it hard recently. I'm definitely not over it. I mean, how can I be? My first and only serious relationship, nearly 2 years; I thought that he'd be the one I would marry. It doesn't take a few weeks and a connection to someone else to get past that.

 

While I feel a connection with RG, I realize now that a big part of it is likely just "filling the void" for me. I was really bummed when I didn't get to see him recently, but then I filled my void with other people and I was okay, until they went away and I felt empty again. Clearly I'm still not okay with just being alone.
