Wings Of Love Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I'm sorry, I just need to vent a little. I cried over him today. That has to be the first time I've shed a tear since November. But the tears didn't last more than a few minutes. This is weird for me, I've always been a very emotional person, crying over the slightest thing. The last few days he has been on my mind a lot more than he has been in quite a while now. :/ I don't know why, nothing's happened to trigger this. No contact is still going well, and I haven't seen nor heard from him since August so no problems there. Today, my little sister was surprised with tickets to an event on Saturday where she will meet her favourite actor Benedict Cumberbatch. Funnily enough, she and many other people say that my ex looks a lot like Benedict, except for the blonde hair. I don't know why, but this is making me really sad, even though I'm happy for my sister because she's really excited. I hate feeling this way. I've been fine for months, so why this sudden setback? The only thing I can put it down to is Valentine's Day. It's still a few days away, but with most of my friends and family paired off and excitedly discussing their plans, I guess it's normal to feel a little sad. Yeah, not much to say really. Just having a rough few days. I hope this passes soon.
somethingsomething Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 It is most definitely because of Vday! Have you dated anyone since your break up or made a connection with anyone? How long were you guys, how long was the BU? This upcoming Vday will also be my first one alone in about 9 years, but this picture always cheers me up.
Inviv_girl Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 It happened... it is normal to feel that way, just dont dwell too long. Get up, stand up and face the new day with big smile. We all here for you. Every morning I wake up, tears always in my eyes, remember him who broke my heart. Let it flow.. just let it flow but then wipe it off and smile again.
Ruby Slippers Posted February 5, 2014 Posted February 5, 2014 I find that letting go happens in waves. I had a wave of letting go the weekend I broke up with my ex, another one about a month later when it really set in, then over the holidays, and now, 4 months later, because I'm talking to the first romantic prospect since him. Now that I'm seriously considering moving on, it's sinking in all over again that it's really over with my ex, which is sad. You need to let yourself feel the emotions, cry, and vent them out however you need to. This is a healthy, normal part of the grieving process. In my experience, the more you suppress the natural feelings of loss, the longer it takes to get over it. Writing on LS is another good way to vent those feelings out. We've all been through it and can relate. Hang in there! 1
Author Wings Of Love Posted February 5, 2014 Author Posted February 5, 2014 It is most definitely because of Vday! Have you dated anyone since your break up or made a connection with anyone? How long were you guys, how long was the BU? This upcoming Vday will also be my first one alone in about 9 years, but this picture always cheers me up. I haven't dated anyone or made a connection. The breakup happened in July so I want to give myself a fair period of time to recover before I get back out there again. We were together for just over a year, he left me 8 days after our first anniversary. :/ That picture is too cute, really put a smile on my face! Thanks for all the support from those who posted. I'm feeling a lot more peaceful today. In fact I've decided to spoil myself on Valentine's Day! No point wasting time thinking about someone who can't appreciate me. 1
