28, had break up from 6 years serious relation last month. Slowly getting over it and focusing on myself and work again. But one thing eating me from inside is - can we feel that love or connection again forgetting the past ? And is it possible to establish it in the AM ? Or we just carry this weight till end ?

Anyone experienced the same in life and can share their experiences ?

My first GF was with me for 4 years and we were friends for 12 years. Yes, it took me nearly 3 years to forget and find new love. (Nearly 1.5 years were tough)

I love my SO but get unsure....they just went on a friends trip and came back and randomly said going on another one in two weeks.

They used to always be all about spending time together and now seems like I have to remind them to put us first in the past month. We both work hard and have kids so life is more complicated. Vent over.

I’ve learned recently about some traumatic events that family members of mine have gone through but I had no idea had occurred. Besides my parents divorcing I really have not experienced that many hardships or trauma in my life. Sometimes it makes me worry if I’m due for something bad to happen, if the other shoe was going to drop at some point. I know hardships are a part of life and I feel like I have had far less than normal

My sister and I have recently both come to the realization that our parents guilt us into spending time with them or visiting them and the guilt causes us both to shut down. Our dad is the main offender, often reminding us how little time we have left with him, asking us why we’re leaving so soon or reminding us about all the good deeds and sacrifices made. We’ve both noticed this shift in our relationship with our parents after graduating from college and starting our own adult lives. Continued
