HELP!

It was my decision but I'm still really sad. I want to be over it and I'm doing all the righ things. I didn't go back to him when he asked me on Christmas eve or called me twice on NYE. I said no. He's beautiful and wonderful to my children, but his life with his friends has always taken precedence. He has not called me a million times when he said that he would, he's broken dates, forgot my birthday. He left me to go out with his friend when I was recovering from surgery. He's forty one and acts twenty one. He e-mailed me the day before yesterday and I didn't respond. I want to stay strong and not give in, but I wish to hell that I didn't miss him.

I'm focusing on myself. I work out once or twice a day, I'm working really hard on my new business as well as my current business, but I would be lying if I didn't admit that this isn't hurting like hell. You can only talk to friends so much because you just don't want to be pathetic. I just need some support right now I really do. My friend always says that it's amazing that a broken heart doesn't kill you. It's so true

Hi. You're doing all the right things, but it doesn't make the pain any easier. Keep doing what you're doing. The pain will go away. Don't feel badly about talking to friends or going out with them. This is what they are there for and you would do the same for them. It can help a lot to vent and also to get out with friends and do normal stuff and not even vent or mention him. Give yourself some time. It will be OK.

I really believe that you teach people how to treat you and you seem to be well on your way to teaching the world that you want more from a relationship than you were getting. Good for you! Come here and vent anytime you need a little support!

Hugs,
