    give yourself the time you feel is needed and then find a new lady. wallowing in loneliness is the real killer.

    Time is a healer man. For now just focus all your energy and attention on something that is exclusive to yourself.

    Don’t be afraid to be in touch with your emotions though

    he’s right op

    ONLY way to break through and move on is find someone better.

    I see myself in the same boat here shortly :jordancry:

    Just embrace it.

    If it doesn’t work out, and you have to force it, you are not meant to be, and you have to move on.

    It’s okay to be sad and grieve the relationship, but just know you will find someone better.

    You have your whole life ahead of you.

    I’d rather find a better match at 40, than rush in my 20s to find a wife I’ll eventually divorce or something

    I dated a girl for over 7 years, she started abusing alcohol while on medication, seemingly out of nowhere.

    Found out she cheated on me, and we broke up.

    We were on and off again for a few more years trying to make it work, but it didn’t happen.

    To say it was HARD would be an absolute understatement.

    I know my friends were tired of hearing about me being sad.

    I lost nearly 20 lbs in just a few weeks.

    My hair was falling out in the shower.

    I would randomly start crying throughout the day.

    This would last a few months...

    But then eventually, I met someone else. It was a total surprise. She was better for me and we were more aligned than my Ex & I were

    Also, I went to therapy. Which I recommend to everyone, even if you think you don’t really need it. You probably do.

    And then I got better.

    It takes time, but believe me, there is light at the end of the tunnel. As hard as it is to see rn.

    Yep you’re right. This is actually what’s going on and I just need to rip the bandaid off so we can both find the happiness we deserve

    That’s growth. You got this

    Don’t be tied to the memories, you’ll make new ones.

    I wish I heard more things like that when I was going through the motions.

    Gotta love urself, do things that make u happy, focus on urself and ur future, the stereotypical “work more and hit the gym” honestly has a lot of truth to it, but a huge part of it is in ur head too

    When u get sad let it out, my personal favorite is driving at night with loud sad music while i cry it out

    Dont rush into another relationship, hook up with people if u want, but dont rush a connection the foundation will be bad, wait til ur actually comfortable alone before u rely on anyone else for love

    Pretty much exactly what I went through. Just gotta keep your head high and keep it moving everything will work out

    Yeah I've been there

    Time does makes it easier

    Best thing to do is keep yourself busy and occupied

    Just think how much worse people have it out in this world, some live in terrible poverty with nothing to their name and everyday is a struggle

    Take it one day at a time, if you have friends then talk to them, involve yourself in activities, level up yourself in the gym and wardrobe

    Life is not fair and it will always try to bring you down. It's up to you to keep going and overcoming the obstacles

    Thanks man

    It was a tough few years, glad I made it out & grew. I came out the other end a lot better as a person.

    I seriously recommend therapy to everyone

    How do you go about therapy? Do you look for a therapist yourself and then see if they accept your insurance or you go to your primary doctor and he will give you a referral?

    Was it expensive? and how long did it last?

  • GhostDeini718

    Was it expensive? and how long did it last?

    It was roughly $120 a session

    And as you get better, you go less.

    I started off weekly, then monthly, now I go yearly.

    Out of pocket:120-150
