leolove Posted August 25, 2011 Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) Hi all! I've been a lurker on this and have just made an account just to tell you all how much I have appreciated all of your posts, and this this forum has helped me greatly with my recent breakup. I was dating this amazing guy, everything was smooth sailing, thought he was the one, ect.... And after one (maybe our first even) little fight things went downhill and he pulled the "I need time card." Well, it turned into a breakup and I was a MESS. To my coworkers, colleagues, and friends, I seemed to be handling it pretty well.. but they had no idea. I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, I cried every minute I was alone, and I probably only functioned because I was drinking copious amounts of energy drinks! The breakup was pretty much an emotional roller coaster that last lasted a month long of him not knowing what he wanted, then wanting to work things out, then not knowing again, over and over again. And even with all the verbal abuse, I STILL WANTED HIM IN MY LIFE. It was terrible. And then I found this forum, learned what NC was, and I started it! I kept myself busy by going to the gym everyday (hotties galore!!), doing volunteer work, reading, and most importantly, LOVING myself!! OMG, it does wonders! For all those going through a breakup, it DOES seem to get harder by the day at first, but you have to stick to it, keep yourself busy, and just remember to LOVE yourself!! A recent quote I stumbled upon, "People always think that the most painful thing in life is losing the one you value, but the truth is the most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of valuing someone too much and forgetting that you are special too. Always remember that if "I" loves "YOU", the "I" should love itself too." And for all those going though a breakup and need a little lift: http://youtu.be/NttJWWUvXPw "You might feel worthless to one person, but you are priceless to another" Edited August 25, 2011 by leolove
