chelle21689 Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 My first love and I broke up after 5 1/2 years. I was so heartbroken...but I think I'm healing a lot better than most people...it's only been 2 weeks. Today I woke up and felt that I could be happy without him. I have so much to look forward to. I'm going to travel to Thailand and Japan, I'm going to have a huge birthday party next week, I've made some new friends, I have gotten closer to my family, and I feel myself getting more confident. I still think about my ex and I love him but now I'm realizing that he may not come back. I still hope maybe one day we will be together in the future but if not, then hopefully I will still be very happy with or without someone. I don't know what this feeling is. It's very odd.....
Good Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 Chelle, I think the fact that you've found some optimism with yourself is a very good thing. Most people in your situation would've dragged their disappointment to a bad degree. Of course, I can't understand how you'd feel odd, because, well, I am not you. But you're on a good track, keep it up! just go with life's flow and don't contemplate too much on what might happen between you and him in the future. Best wishes,
melenkurion Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 This all sounds really positive, you have a lot in your life to look forward to. I know that it is hard, but do your utmost just to focus on all these good thigns you have to look forward to. You deserve them!
Graceful Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 My first love and I broke up after 5 1/2 years.

I don't know what this feeling is. It's very odd..... chelle, You're readjusting your focus, that's what it sounds like. You're looking at what you have to look FORWARD to, which sounds like some great adventures and lots of fun. You have a great support system and a loving family. Perfect formula for seeing life as the glass half full, not half empty. From what I know, I really think your breakup was very respectful and honest, and that's probably resonating with you. I still think about my ex and I love him but now I'm realizing that he may not come back. I still hope maybe one day we will be together in the future but if not, then hopefully I will still be very happy with or without someone. Perfect formula for happiness. Be happy with yourself. Be happy with your life. Know that no matter what happens, whether it's with your ex or not, happiness awaits you. Great attitude. Love it.
