If you mean, "feel OK about it," then no I don't. If it wasn't upsetting, then it wasn't much of a relationship.Reliant121 wrote:Does anyone have suggestions of how to cope with a end of a relationsip? I could really use it, i feel like sh*t right about now.
What hurt me most was that I ended it. But I really hate hurting people. The fact that I have done so is really painful.Mikey wrote:If you mean, "feel OK about it," then no I don't.

to "merely" cope: remember that it's OK to feel like sh*t. You're allowed. I know I'm probably going to sound too much like a dad here, but I'm 23 years older than you and I'm allowed. It WILL get better. I promise. It's like any other painful experience - you have natural ways of getting through, but you have to let those ways take their course - you will get mad, you will get sad, you will wonder why, and you will finally accept it. The trick is to have faith that these steps will happen, because they are awfully tough to see from the inside.
As he has told me. I do have reason, but i wont disclose that. I am the kind of person that naturally believes itself to feel guilty for something, even if it was not his fault. I naturally put the other person before myself.Mikey wrote:That's often worse than the other way around. But remember that you can't go around hurting yourself, either - I presume there was a reason that you did what you did, and you must remember that you count for as much as anybody else.
That is the skill I have yet to master, or yet to even take under learning.Mikey wrote:It's an admirable quality, Reliant, but you can't allow that to dictate your own happiness (or lack thereof.)
