Anger now....
| Thu, 08-02-2007 - 9:52pm |
I thought it was bad to feel pain and hurt but I now I think anger is worse! Stage two? At first I was just so hurt and disallusioned after him spending nearly two years planning the rest of our lives and doing everything he could to win me... and now he's "not sure" about anything and wanting "time off' which I am just calling a breakup because that's what it is. So now, after the final email (he came back with "no, let's not take a berak" and then "yeah, we need to" game) from him, I just feel so angry! Feel lied to, led on... so frustrated he's being illogical and unfair! I know it does no good to be angry, but I don't know what to do with this feeling! I keep replaying his selfishness and his rejection. I am leaving this week for a vacation in Cayman and he was supposed to come along and now I have to go alone (with family but without him) and I am just so angry at him about it! Selfishness sucks! Does this stage pass too?

It does. But I also have found the anger stage is the hardest to get through because anger is so uncomfortable to feel and live with. It helps to journal a lot (get it out) and also to do as much physical exercise as you can. But ultimately you just have to let it run its course.
The good news is, it means you are making progress even though it doesn't feel good.

Good luck. I tell you this advice because I am trying to take it myself, btw...
