I was supposed to get married today

[Infomercials]

...and quite honestly, my life is a lot better right now than it was when my ex decided things were over. He wasn't good for me, and I know I'm better off in the long run. However, August 9th, 2013 was supposed to be my wedding day, and I'm having a hard time with it. I was dreading this day because it feels like a big setback even though I do NOT want to be back with him. I guess, ultimately, I'm looking for support. I'm trying to keep busy, but it's only doing so much.

I broke my engagement with my ex, and when the day of our wedding came around, I was just relieved!

 

Think of how miserable your life could have been, and be glad you didn't make that mistake.

 

Make this day a celebration of your new beginning

This day will pass. I know the feeling of "anniversary" dates that one won't soon forget.

 

My ex's 45th birthday was yesterday (8th) and I never would have thought we'd be apart. Well, it's been more than a year, second birthday I've been without her, BUT, been the most relaxed year of my life! No more toxicity.

 

These days will pass, believe me. I realize that a birthday can't be compared to a wedding date to the heart broken, but if its any consolation? I was suppossed to be married by now as well. We were engaged after being together for SEVEN years.

 

Hang in there, you'll do just fine!

I'm so sorry to hear this. You will have good and bad days. I fully understand how you are feeling. Today is also a bad day for me. I know I reply a day late, but I hope you feel better today.

Oddly enough, I found this while searching for a very similar post for myself. I was suppose to get married today and having some issues dealing with my time. I hope you got through it okay, and knowing there's other ladies experiencing similar days helps me a bit too
