rngrl12 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Hey everyone, I don't know if this is the right forum but I wanted to give an update 8 months post break up. My ex is still dating the girl he cheated on me with as far as I know. He moved out to Oklahoma to be with her. As far as I know he is planning on staying out there and I should never have to see him again. I survived seeing him in a class of 20 people every day for 16 weeks. To anyone going through a rough break up I promise you that you are stronger than you think you are and I promise you that you will come out the other side of this. I haven't met anyone else. I am not friends with my ex. I've stuck to NC and it has done wonders for allowing myself to heal. Stick with it, it gets easier. I don't even know how many days of NC I'm at. I know that it's hard and you feel like your world has caved in and you're going to die but you'll get through it and it gets better. Just breathe. Know your strong. I am such a better, happier, more confident person since the break up. I have found a job that I love. I start my master's degree this summer. I have started weight lifting and eating clean. I feel amazing. You don't need someone else to make you happy. You'll find happiness again. Things get better. I promise. 8
hippychick3 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 That's a great update. Glad you have moved on and things are so much better for you now Everyone who is going through a horrible break up should read your post so they know that in time the pain lessens and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. 1

Author rngrl12 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Posted March 28, 2016 Thanks guys I frequented this forum way back when it feels like forever ago. I thought I would never get out of the rut I was in. I was severely depressed. I don't remember the last time I cried over the break up. I can think of the ex and not break down. I have gone on a few dates some with men who are SO MUCH BETTER than my ex. It didn't turn into anything but it sure boosted my confidence to know I can get a better man. I'm at a place where I've finally healed and am ready to start a new relationship just patiently waiting for Mr. Right to come along but until then I'm hanging out with friends, kicking ass in my research, and lifting like a beast. It gets better. Invest in yourself because it is worth it. 1
Lifeissomething Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Thanks for sharing. You aren't alone--I work in the same office as my ex, who dumped me about just over 8 months ago. I've had to see her more times than not, including a meeting a week after the breakup--that was hard. Your promises are spot on, and to anyone that may be struggling with the terms of their breakup: you can and will survive through this and come out a better person. I wouldn't say I'm as healed as you are, but I'm definitely not living through the dark days that were the last half of 2015. To wishing you a continued recovery/healing!

Was meant to be marrying my ex this year and now she's happily with someone else. It's amazing how quickly things change. You give me hope that it will get better because I'm losing my mind at the moment. Thanks again. Zak.
