mymission Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 I know the timescale is different for different situations and different people. I was with my ex for 18 months, and its been nearly 4 months since the breakup. First 6 weeks I was all over the place. My emotions have died down a lot but I still miss him. Even though I don't think he was the one for me in terms of direction in life etc. I can't imagine anybody else holding me or having that intense relationship with anybody else.
CopingGal Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Next month will be a year since I left him. I don't miss him. I don't like him. I don't love him. But I miss who I thought he was. I miss the man he was pretending to me...the decent man with a conscience who loved me. In reality he was a disrespectful cheater who had no remorse for the suffering he caused me. I've been NC for 8 months, but had a few breaks in there. I've been straight NC for over 2 months.
Author mymission Posted June 11, 2012 Author Posted June 11, 2012 A breakup is the worst feeling ever. I just feel sorry for the people who are together 15-20 years and are married with kids and then split up.
PissOfMind Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 My suffering after breakup was much longer because of me sticking stubbornly to memories and the image of him that I created in my mind. NC definitely helped me let go and see things as what they really are. Now I'm trying to get my stuff back from him (see thread below;P), but I have no intention of speaking to him again as it would distract me from me and my healing process. Make sure you surround yourself with positive people and that you don't sit at home staring at the wall. Boredom triggers missing and sadness. 1
