Michael 93 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Hi All, Going through a bit of a rough patch at the moment, currently in NC not been in NC for that long yet. A lot has happened and I'm 100% dedicated to trying to improve myself.. Its been quite interesting to look back on some of you 'old heads stories' and realize just how much has happened over the space of time on this site. This page is a rabbit warren of information and I thank you all for the things you have taught and shown so far. What I'm asking is there any 'old heads' who are still on here who are now fully happy? And have managed to completely move on without the person you felt you could not live without? There may even be people who have managed to get there ex back? Any story is welcome.. I just need a bit of inspiration to get me through this difficult stage. I thought It would of got better by now as its been 6 months. Feel like the biggest idiot for prolonging my pain more than I had too. Any Tips you felt were CRITICAL in recovering/assisting you with finding your happiness again? Thanks Mike
BC1980 Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 I've been broken up for 14 months and only 6 months NC. I didn't start feeling better until about 2 months ago. My biggest mistake was not going NC sooner. It gets worse before it gets better, but it does get better. Never give an inch with NC. Never give in. I read books on grief and applied the concept. I've volunteered, meet new people, ect. It's very hard, but you have no choice but to move on. You have to work at moving on. It doesn't just happen. 1
HeartbrokenNewbie Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Kind of... I was totally heartbroken but did meet someone else at around 6 months post BU... it didnt work out BUT what it did do was show me that I could have strong feelings for someone else (when I never thought I would!) so I try and use that as hope... it certainly blew my "Ill never feel anything for anyone else" philosophy out of the window! x
