Venting

I was in a relationship for 7 years and we both had to move to different places and suddenly has to adapt to a crazy, new, and demanding schedule. Less than two months in my ex decided that it was best to break up over text. I went on a spiral because nothing had been mentioned about issues and two days before fire we were talking about Christmas gift for our families.It was so bad that it affected my professional life as well and I started having anxiety attacks. We stayed texting for a while and one day my ex just suddenly stopped after texting me the day before we would talk the next day. It was just so different from what I am used to from this person. I am just having a hard time moving on because it feels like I was betrayed in a way and I don’t even know this person. I feel blindsided and abandoned. I don’t even feel like I can talk to friends and family at times because everyone just expects me to get over it at a fast speed that I can’t even imagine. I am trying to, I have kept myself busy and make sure to work on myself. But some days are just hard on me.

7 years! That’s wild! If someone can just flip a switch one day and cut someone they’ve spent so much time together then its hard to not just feel like a place holder until they find someone else. That doesn’t mean someone better. Things that take time to accept. I’m still navigating these as well. We are supposed to focus on appreciating the good memories and be thankful for the time spent together, this sucks at first because they give you hope to reconnect again. Loving unconditionally means letting them go. If they think they found better then they need to pursue that. It seems like you both moved for opportunities for a better future. Focus and grind on that. Healthy habits! Instead of waking up and inevitably reminiscing…. Think…. What am I going to do today to better myself mentally and physically. You can do it! It just takes some time.

Thank you for the support. I really appreciate it. I am going to take your advice into consideration and do a day at a time focusing on completing things for myself. I feel like I have been putting too much pressure trying to archive bigger things and failing at it(which has not been helping my self esteem in any way.)
