It's been 6 months of NC since we both just stopped contacting each other, (the relationship was getting distant due to my resemtment of the way I was being treat). Ex posted after 2 weeks of NC that she was "in a relationship" on Facebook, with my so called friend. To say I took it badly was an understatemet, but I kept my dignity and did not contact either of them, even though I was angry and felt betrayed.

 

It's ben a very hard 6 months, illness before christmas, friends death in the new year and illness again culminating in 3 weeks in hospital with 2 major operations. I'm trying to get my strength back now and work have said I am nowhere near fit enough to return yet....so, I have a lot of time alone, (I live alone) and i'm finding myself returning to thoughts of her a great deal. The hurt keeps hitting me in waves. just tonight I saw her BF driving behind me, he beeped at me, I kept driving...dick, I have nothing to say to him, but saw he was heading to my exes house/area, I know they're still together, karma is BS, as well as rebounds not working, they're together and it kills me at times.

 

I have quite major health problems to overcome in the coming weeks, feel very weak, mentally as well as physically, lost a lot of confidence, can anyone offer advice on how to move forward from all of this? I know it's only been 6 months, but we were together for 8 years...still feel very sad about it all...probably more so because I am isolated due to my illness and recuperation.

 

Many thanks for reading.

Exercise, studying, reading positive books, exercise, learning to play an instrument, trying a new recipe, exercise, meeting new people and reconnecting with people you havent seen in a while, exercise.

Exercise I can't do due to my illness. I used to play squash, run and swim and it's all been taken away.

 

I read a lot, getting out making new friends I am limited with, once again due to my illness.

 

It's just so frustrating to know she is building a new life without giving me a second thought and I have to live with the current situation. I'm not a negative person, but feel cocooned and isolated.

 

I have friends and family, they are very supportive with my recuperation, but I'm the one dealing with it and I'm struggling, sorry just having a vent I guess.

Sorry...if it's not too personal... what was your 'illness'....?

I would guess you're convalescing and recovering?

 

Maybe we can support your healing process better, if we know more about it....
