1st post, just found this site a few days ago and I guess at this time I'd rather vent here than to friends that have been hearing me go on and on about my situation.

 

She left me 5 weeks ago, first that she needed a break, then I found out she was cheating... I'm getting over that and the feeling of emptiness when she told me she wanted out was replaced by the usual feelings one gets when you find out your 'soul'mate stepped out on you. Hate, anger, pity, etc...

 

So I'm moving on and part of that moving on is deleting pictures of her that are on my facebook. We were only together 3 years and close to 2 of them married but we accumulated so many memories and documented so many pictures that I find myself only being able to go for about 5 minutes when the tears begin...

 

I know the wound is fresh and time will heal it somewhat but I go through this roller coaster ride of emotions. Sometimes I wish I would wake up, sometimes I wish I could go back in time. I know these are things that cant be done and I get mad at myself for allowing the good times to creep back in and mess with my mind. No matter what I did whether real or imagined in her world, I know I wasnt the one that pushed her to cheat. That was her decision and she has to live with it, but I still beat myself up about it... This sucks! plain and simple

 

Anyhoot, thanks for listening... Be well everyone!

Let me be the first to suggest you just delete your whole Facebook instead.

 

 

Delete your Facebook, delete her from everything else you decide to keep, and move on with your life.

 

 

Once you've healed, make a new one.

Best advice. Do this.

 

I recently ended a relationship, and after I blocked him, I deleted my page. It is an unnecessary distraction right now. Although he's blocked, we still have mutual friends, and it just brings the pain back. He will find out what I did and likely think I'm irrational for doing so. However, it'll help me heal.

Hang in there, crying is healing, you'll rise up from the ashes & learn to fly again.

I agree to delete the account & start fresh later on.

I agree. Deleting your Facebook will give you a freedom you didn't expect.

I deleted mine recently for different reasons, and apart from the first couple of days, I don't miss it at all. It actually prompts people to call me because they want to catch up..

 

Hang in there, time will heal this.
