I’m so sorry you’re not feeling well. Drink some electrolytes like coconut water or a sport drink. Ginger tea or peppermint tea works well too when I don’t feel well it’s very settling, chamomile. Try to focus on the fact that you’re FREE now he’s your EX!!! I know how you feel it’s painful but this too shall pass !

You deserve unconditional love and someone that will cherish you. You put up with it because you thought you found that person.

Have some grace with yourself and treat yourself the way you would treat your best friend. We are always kinder to our friends then to ourselves for some reason.

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.

CTC is: PF+ 76185

PF: 2040 so it's getting deducted 2 times same amount every month. Before salary is paid and after.

Has anyone dealt with coming to terms with an emotionally abusive relationship? I struggle to admit this (because more drastic examples come to mind), but my therapist mentioned that things like yelling/throwing things/blocking me from leaving the room are also abusive traits my ex demonstrated.

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

I hope he’s in as much pain as I am. The way he ended it was so cold and selfish and unlike how he was any other time with me. It was like a personality switch. I’ve never been so wrong about someone. I’m not sure how to process or recover from that part of it.
