It has been 5 months since my ex and I last spoke and broke up. I am doing much better now than I was when it first happened ( I couldn't even function). I know this break up was for the best because it turned into a volatile relationship and I spent a portion of every day crying. I wasn't a way I wanted to live anymore. Still to this day I can't get him off my mind even though I know it was for the best. We were engaged and talked about our future. I think more than anything I am afraid I will never find that in a person again, and I feel like I am over the hill at the age of 23 :(

It wasn't a way you wanted to live anymore; do you think marrying him would change things?? At 23 you are still a babe in the woods:) So much to learn and so very much you have yet to experience;) Take it from a battle hardened 41 year old;) You are NOT over the hill;)

 

You have done well with no contact, I see, and have 5 months under your belt--beats day one:) Your relationship had you crying much of the time-kudos to you for realizing that this is not a way you want to live, and more kudos for not settling for the sake of having someone:)

 

You WILL find a nice fellow who will know how to care for you and love you. It's not that you miss your ex, you miss the idea of him; the idea of talking engagement and such. You know you have lots to offer a worthy man. Keep being for YOU and heal:)

Oh my, I remember this. Feeling like I'd never be happy again and never find someone as good... well the truth is you will find better. If you learn from this you will see the negative signs and learn who is worth giving your heart to.
