sadgirlRN Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 Hey everyone, I haven't been for too long now but have read several posts. And I am much like most of you. You know same story, had my heart broken out of no where, still in love with the guy, wanted him back, yadda yadda yadda. But recently i came to a huge realization. I am better than this!!! I am worth so much more than he ever gave me and i deserve so much better!! Yes, i still love him but knowing that I deserve better has made things so much easier. I settled and he did me a favor when he broke my heart because now I can find someone who will respect me and love me the way that i deserve. And I know most of you are in the same position. I know we want them back so bad, think we can't live without them, but the reality is is that we can. and we must! We must hold ourselves to a higher standard and not settele for anything but the best! I dont know about you guys but i found myself posting and asking advice to try and get different answers than what i already knew. I knew he didnt wnat me anymore and we could never be together again but I wanted someone to tell me differently. I wanted someone to say he'll come around, he'll realize what he lost. But the truth is I shouldn't want this because I deserve better than what he can give me. So now instead of pining away for him and missing him. I wake up everday thankful for the people in my life that make me smile and bring me joy. And I'm looking forward to the day I meet that special someone that is blown away by me and would do anything so I never get away, because I know he's out there and I know I'll find him. So don't be sad anymore, lets get on living without them. Because we deserve better!!!
XoAnGeL98OX Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 I'm soo happy to hear ur doing so well!!....I myself at the moment is goin thru the same. Can't wait to get to the point u are..Right now it seems pretty much impossible but i kno ima get there. Cause in reality like u said no matter how much u wish they would change.... We shouldn't settle because we feel so much... Instead look for the one that treat us with the respect that we deserve.
GL 44 Posted July 28, 2005 Posted July 28, 2005 SadgirlRN, I am where you are now. It feels so much better than the very early days after breakup when there was so much despair, shock, denial. Wanting them. Wanting them to want you. It's so liberating to get to a point that you have. Time and N/C tends to clear the mind and heal the wild waves of emotion. I laughed today. It's been a little over a month for me. Laughing felt really good. My mind is less and less preoccupied with thoughts of her. I am realizing the same things as you pointed out. We're gettin there sister. Stay strong.
