chocolatebox06 Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 I just need to share this with others that are in my shoes. The pain of wanting my ex back wass amazingly powerful and it hurts so much. I kicked my husband out 6 months ago and I have been so strong, but for some reason 3 weeks ago I started crying and really wanting my ex back. The pain was really bad. Couldnt believe it would go away. I felt I needed to see him, to hold him, to talk to him. The pain in my chest was bad, I was constantly feeling sick. The feeling was overwhelming and the tears just wouldnt stop. I went to see a Marriage Councillor on Wednesday by myself, I felt I was going crazy. I talked it over with her. She explained that it was a loss and I was going thro a grieving period. I cried the whole hour. I had a very bad day. Then yesterday, I woke up feeling loads better. A cloud had lifted. I havnt cried since. Iv stopped dreaming about him - thank goodness - and I feel the old me is back. How long it carries on I dont know, all I know is that terrible pain in my chest has gone, and I dont feel sick any more. I never thought it would go away, but it does, and yes people do tell u but when your going thro it you just dont believe it. How long it takes is different with everyone, but it does get easier. I know Im still going to have bad days, but I dont think, actually I know it woant be that bad again. Keep strong.
