brneyedgrl Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 I realize there are steps to the grieving process but I feel more and more each day that this is where I'm supposed to be and I will a better, stronger person in the end. I've accepted that he is not the one for me and although I still miss him, I think what I miss more is the memory of what could've been and the companionship. But while thinking about the could've beens, I also realize I'm probably romanticising them and my future with this man that left me would'nt have been all that great. I am excited to start living life for me again, working on my own place, and being a little selfish while I'm still young and have the chance :-)
smudge21 Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 So true - we miss the fantasy more than the reality. We build people up in our minds and make every moment with them appear like they were the best we've ever had. That's why it's so hard to move on for all of us. You're in a good place right now - save a seat for me as I'm hoping to be there too one day.
Author brneyedgrl Posted February 14, 2011 Author Posted February 14, 2011 Exactly.. and it's only been a month since the actual b/u for me... we were together for 6 years. But because he's done this before and within the past 3 months he has been a completely different, cold person, my recovery period has been remarkably quick. I wish the best for you smudge21, smile, every day that goes by is 1 day closer to being over them.
smudge21 Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Sadly I've got a few complications with mine (see my Trying NC post) as I still see her due to work every now and then. I still remember the good times much more than the bad, but I know eventually I will be where you are.
marqueemoon4 Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 I can no longer ACCEPT Rihanna throwing her arm and saying SURPRISE for that American Cancer Society ad on this forum. Thats what I can't accept.
Author brneyedgrl Posted February 14, 2011 Author Posted February 14, 2011 @Marqueemoon...Lol, I couldn't agree more.
