BriNyc82 Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 I know the AM (or PM) is usually the roughest. All the sadness comes flooding through right when you open (or close) your eyes. I wrote this email when I was first going through my breakup and I would read it first thing in the AM and even throughout the day. It made me feel better, mostly b/c now I actually believe what I wrote in this letter to myself. I kept reading it over and over and convincing myself that what I wrote was the truth but after reading it so many times, I actually believe it. Here goes: Brianna Do not beat yourself up about this or get upset that it didn't work out the way you intended. Be grateful that you got to time with someone who you cliqued with. People come in and out of our lives for a reason and you will know the reason soon enough. Not everyone you have fun with or see certain admirable qualities for a future means you know them well enough deep down. He is not a bad person. He has never treated you unkind or disrespectfully. Trust that he is making a decision because he knows himself better than you do and it is for the best at this time. You are a strong, confident, emotionally healthy person and deserve someone who will be by your side no matter what; not shut down, panic and run away at the drop of a hat at the first "real" conversation you have. You are not weak for having strong feelings and expressing them. It is an act of strength to be able to to express yourself deeply. There is someone out there who can acknowledge your feelings and reciprocate their own to you. You know what you want out of life, as well as what you don't. You have been through this before. You have learned those lessons and best of all you have not held on to anger and let it stop you from putting your heart out there yet again. You did all of the work in your past breakups to get you this strong! Next time you will be a little more cautious but you will fall hard again. It's what makes you you! Do not apologize for being yourself. Do not think you could have done anything differently to change this outcome. Stop thinking about his happiness and how he is doing and start focusing on YOURS. Your life was great before you met him and it still is. Live your life for YOU because it's worth living. Be kind to yourself 1
