watshername Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 More and more I've been thinking that getting over someone doesn't always have to be an active thing, in many cases I think that actually trying to get over someone makes it worse as you try to put all your emotions away and not realise how much you're hurting until one day you do realise that the end of the relationship did really break your heart. I've come to the conclusion, for me at least, that how I will get over my ex love is to just let it happen. I don't think I need to throw myself into any projects that I wasn't already doing or surround myself with friends, as once they go away I just feel as bad. No I just need to learn to be by myself and like it, enjoy my own time, enjoy this new life I have. Ok so it's not what I envisioned but it's not bad. I think at least some people could find comfort in this thought, maybe it's just me.
b_rouse Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 I can relate. I never really had time to digest the break up because I'm still in college. I had to continue to push all my feelings for him aside to focus on my schooling, and that didn't go to well. If anything, it hindered my healing process until one day, I broke down...in class...embarrassing! So I just spend that whole day grieving the loss. I was like, "I know I need more time, but I can't give anymore time without it effecting my grades, so you'll have one day to mope around the apartment. Eat whatever you want, watch whatever you want. Just relax." And after that day, I felt really good. Sure, I still felt like crap, but I was able to let a lot of what I was feeling out, through tears, this website and journaling.
