lolo1234 Posted March 28, 2011 Posted March 28, 2011 I took all the letters from him I had saved and cut them up into tiny pieces. Dumped into the trash. Didn't even take the time to read them one last time. The only thought I was thinking was "damn I wish I had a shredder". . Then I proceeded to make some chicken soup (cuz I'm sick). And I got so much pleasure out of tossing those onion peels and vegetable scraps over the notes. I feel like a weight has been lifted.
Thatguyintx Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Very good! I also shredded all the notes she gave me. I took them to a hiking place high on a hill that was once special to us and let them go. Very therapeutic to watch the paper fly away. I also got rid of every gift she bought for me. Get better soon (physically and emotionally).
stopthemadness Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Good for you!! thats a big step. I was keeping a journal from like first week of breakup. Wrote in it for months, per my therapist. One day i went back to read some of it(wow) it was very dark, very sad..I was very broken..First week in Feb I burned it. It felt Soo Good to let all that stuff go. It was very freeing.I no longer keep a journal. Kinda feel like am past that part (cause iam) Burning my journal was very therepeutic. Keep up the healing..WE can do this...
NoEnd_Mary Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 Wow very good. I am so proud of everyone. I took a knife and slashed thru this painting he made for me and just tossed it. I also sold his gifts and it felt good to get rid of them. I am also donating all the clothes he gave me. It really frees the mind when you physically let go of the stuff -- reminders of a relationship failed. Go us!
Author lolo1234 Posted March 29, 2011 Author Posted March 29, 2011 Yay!! We're doing right by us. Which is what we need to do right now. I erroneously gave up so much of myself for him. It's time to take that power back.
Fufu Posted March 29, 2011 Posted March 29, 2011 You are doing grest, im kind of hungry now, i will love having chicken soup now.
