CHRISTMAS BREAK UP

HE broke up with me.... A man who hit me, accused me of cheating, and had the nerve to break up with me on Christmas Eve at his familys party...


I feel pathetic... I know I will be better off but why does it still hurt?

It's not logical but even when you know a particular man isn't good for you, you can still get emotionally attached and it's hard to break the connection.

Hi Sandra,


It still hurts because grief is involved.

I have to tell you that this board has helped me even before we broke up.


I was doing ok and then last night before I went out to dinner with my friends he sent me an IM. He told me that its nice to see how easy it is for me to move on. Only because I have NOT CONTACTED him! Although I have been tempted I held my ground.


He told me he still loves me and that he needed time.
