Perplexed81 Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 I'm sure for most these holidays have been somewhat of a drag on everyone. To give those of a bit of hope and pick me up hopefully this will make you feel a bit better by knowing that there is a light at the end of what seems to be an endless dark tunnel ahead. January 13, 2011 will be officially 4 months without any form of physical contact with my ex. For all my screwups you can read my previous posts. Its odd to me becuase I looked back at all my previous serious relationships and how I reacted to them and how long its taken me to get to this point. Its odd becuase out of all my serious relationships, this past one is the one that actually meant the most to me and but also this breakup has been the one that has taken me the least amount of time to get over. Over the past almost 4 months i've been working and saving my money relentlessly, just recently bought a brand new vehicle (felt accomplished), in exactly 6 months I'll be purchasing my first home and in the meantime have decided to take a trip to the Czech Republic for 10 days. I don't know for everyone else but the point of all this is how to go from one life to another. Post breakup you don't know what to do, you have all this free time and have NO IDEA what to do with it! PLEASE EVERYONE, although it takes longer than others, I IMPLORE ALL OF YOU to actually sit back and think of what this new found freedom actually means. For me, i've decided that traveling through Europe and meeting all walks of life is gonna be what I need to finally break through and see that once and for all that there's MILLIONS of people out there and you never know who your gonna meet. I didn't get the travel bug JUST to help me get over my breakup, only about 20% i'd say is actually for that, the other 80% is just becuase, hey, you only live once, you can't just settle without taking advantage of whats been given to you. I feel great, I finally eat like I used to, sleep like I used to and believe it or not, those dreams I was having EVERY night have suddenly dissapeared! Yes! most of the misery has finally started to dissipate and I find myself no longer thinking about it as much as I have. I enjoy the days much more now and have taken hold of my life back and I'm not gonna screw my new opportunity up but am gonna embrace it. I hope that my experience can be a tool for the rest of you not there yet to use to give you confidence and inspiration so that you too can finally get to where I am. SO CHIN UP AND HEAD HIGH and keep grinding along, you will all get there. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
january2010 Posted December 26, 2010 Posted December 26, 2010 Good for you! I don't know for everyone else but the point of all this is how to go from one life to another. Post breakup you don't know what to do, you have all this free time and have NO IDEA what to do with it! PLEASE EVERYONE, although it takes longer than others, I IMPLORE ALL OF YOU to actually sit back and think of what this new found freedom actually means. Yes, I realised that it was better to focus on what I can do rather than what I can't do.
