Zul Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Good afternoon, all. This fall, my family just planned a trip to Disney World for all of us. Normally everyone would be so excited to think that they're going, and all I am is sad. My ex and I went to Disney World many many times over the summers we were together. There are so many memories there with her, and they were all super happy memories. I remember them vividly like yesterday. I am nervous to go, because I feel like I'm going to be miserable as Disney World was our favorite vacation to take, and we talked about how much fun we had all the time and always looked forward to going again. Now that we are broken up, and she is dating someone new; I feel like all I am going to do is be sad while I am there. I love Disney World, but I just can't imagine standing, eating, sitting, riding the rides with her not next to me and remembering when we were there together. It'll be so weird riding and doing all the things we did without her by my side. That's pretty much the only thing I've always worried about, it's going to be really really hard. Especially during the fireworks because we enjoyed those the most watching them and listening to the music and..... I'm so, so nervous
amaysngrace Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Go have fun and make some new memories. It's Disney world for crying out loud. If you're miserable there because she has that much power over you then you probably need to see a shrink. No offense.
Amas5750 Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Zul.. Its going to have poignant and painful moments. Maybe you could try to make a few new memories that are not based on her whilst there. I understand places can get sooo associated with a person tho Xxxx
trustyourself Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Maybe you can invite a friend? I am sure that just being with your family and engaging them will be a good distraction. I just went to a summer party my company hosted at an amusement park. My ex went with me last year, and she was going to come this year but broke up with me a week before. I thought I would be miserable, but I just hung out with other people and actually had a good time. She would pop into my head every now and then, but I would ponder a moment and then continue engaging other people in conversation. I got through it. So can you
Author Zul Posted July 28, 2017 Author Posted July 28, 2017 All, Thank you for your responses so far. You know, I did some thinking about what you each said. I'm going to not let her hold power over me, and I am going to try to make new memories without her. It's just hard sometimes to realize I had a life before her, and I will have a life after her. Thank you
trustyourself Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 All, I had a life before her, and I will have a life after her. Thank you That's a good mantra. I think I will adopt it while I am trying to recover Good luck man
