NotASkunk Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) I'm recently out of a long-term relationship, it didn't work out and I am just at that point where I'm accepting the loss. I had a bit of an epiphany last week and suddenly it was very clear to me that it was really over, that I could totally handle no contact and that I would be much better off without the relationship myself even though I was willing to fight hard for it for a very long time. It made everything a lot easier for me, I felt like I had crested a hump and was feeling very grateful and I still am! Today I woke up to a cold drizzly morning, rain has been falling lightly all morning long. I love this kind of weather so much. My ex and I both shared a fondness for these sort of days. It feels like the kind of day where you want to lite candles and start a fire and be comfy cozy in the house all day with something delicious cooking on the stove. It's on a day like today that I have to remember that the bad times far outweighed the good times. Trying to distract myself, trying to be at peace with what is. I think that you probably have to go through a whole year and experience all the seasons and be OK with the memories and appreciate them but then to let it go. I wonder sometimes if he feels nothing but hate for me or if he has days like this too. Every day is a new opportunity to learn and grow. Thank you for letting me get my feelings out. It feels good to be able to share them with a group of people who are also coping. Edited September 14, 2016 by a LoveShack.org Moderator Edited for paragraphs ~ V 1
sorano Posted September 18, 2016 Posted September 18, 2016 It's tough to deal with. The holidays will also be tough. One day at a time. Everything will pass. Everything will be ok. Let time do it's magic. No matter how long it takes. There is no race.
