blue_jay_bird Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 I know this is silly but their are little moments when you realize you are doing better. I'll start, I saw pic's of the ex's birthday on facebook. Normally i would get upset, but i didn't feel anything. It was like looking at a strangers photo's. Im not sure why. I'd like you to celebrate these moments by posting them here. Big or Small, they are important to remember. 1
weallfalldown Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 I thought back at our relationship, and wandered if it actualy happened?...was it a dream?...haha....apart from that most **** still bugs me!...
Hindsight_is_20_20 Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 I know what you mean. I have more and more of those moments too. Saw a picture of us as my avatar on a iphone app that we used to play together. It took me back for a second and I thought about it for a few minutes, but before I would have started crying and let it ruin my night. I changed the picture, deleted all of our old games and proceeded to do that with all of the rest of the apps as well. I gotta say though, it's two steps forward one step back because today isn't my strongest day. I woke up thinking about him, had a dream about him again last night and I feel a little bit of a set back today. I know it will pass and there will be less of these days. I can't wait for that to be the case. It's been a little over 2 months since our BU. 1
Coffee20 Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) you are soooo lucky!! I can't wait for this day! I saw my ex profile fb picture and my heart was beating like mad for a while! 3,5 months from BU uhm ok I should post something about healing - I had two days last week when I almost didn't think about my ex at all, just maybe for 5 minutes and then nothing!

Author blue_jay_bird Posted July 29, 2012 Author Posted July 29, 2012 I I woke up thinking about him, had a dream about him again last night and I feel a little bit of a set back today. It's been a little over 2 months since our BU. My dreams are a cruel joke. They taunt me. Even in my dreams, I'm an idiot who knows he's about to wake up to reality. Hey, Hindsight_20_20. Im NC, 2 months too. Stay strong.
steveblack Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 1 month of NC. little things here and there. Not as emotional, feeling stronger everyday. Instead of thinking what can I do to get her back, I am thinking, I am a lot better than this, and I deserve better. Starting to dream about her now constantly (which sucks).
Canadian731 Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 There is always going to be that moment when you realize you are better off without that person in your life. I feel that my progress I have made in the past 2 months (lost 35lbs and working towards finishing post secondary/joining the military) would have never happened if I was still with her, we would still be in the rut we were in arguing over what to have for dinner or something stupid like that. It gives a whole new meaning to the saying "when one door closes another opens" 1
mike588 Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 My ex. dumped me 1 year ago and I went thru all the heart break and sorrow like we all are/have gone thru. Around the 6 month mark I was much better but not completely 100% over her yet. She contacted me around that time saying how sorry she was...how she regretted hurting me blah blah blah and I'll admit it set me back a few steps and opened that wound. Around the 7 month mark I was really moving on and rarely though about her or the b/u. Now a year later I have to think..to think about her. I'm sooooo over her and ocassionally think about her but it doesn't bring any pain....regret or sadness....what a GREAT feeling!!
