Hello,


I can only imagine that this hurts pretty bad. But I hope that you commend yourself on being the mom you are. The guy was not going to accept the challenges of your son and so it is best for your son especially that you

Hi Singlemom01

Welcome!! Sorry you are in such pain. I think a breakup is painful no matter what - regardless if you know you made the right decision and the person is really bad or not the one or just isn't that into you. You miss the companionship and so forth. I understand, I really do.

Time is the best concoction - each day will take you one step away from this pain. Focus on making YOURSELF happy. For when you truly depend on yourself for your own happiness you are going to be very happy and in control of your destiny. We all have different ways to take care of ourselves during tough times. I know for me it is to go shopping and really clean the house and talk to a lot of friends and post here. Do different stuff to get my mind off it it.

I think it helps to journal about why this one didn't work and about what you want for the next time.

One day the perfect person for you will come along and you will be glad you waited for just the right one!!

I hope you stick around here. There is lots for you to read and we hope you participate in our threads. I am sure the others will have more great advice, too!

It's odd, but I meet my ex on an online dating site like eharmony.
