:) we're going through almost the exact same thing. i broke up with someone like 2 months ago who i'd been with for 4.5 years and the farther i remove myself from the relationship i realize i'd completely lost myself. i still wake up feeling like it's really not going to ever be okay without him.
i meant to respond to your last entry but got side tracked. it still hurts and it's going to hurt. and like you, i've met other guys but i haven't let any of them get close because i don't trust myself to just replace him with them in the heat of the moment and make huge mistakes. that and i try so hard to be strong and tough and independent, so much so that i fooled myself into thinking i was over him and it all hit me like a ton of bricks that i need to mourn the loss of the relationship.
sorry that was long winded. at any rate, i know i don't know you and i've only met you that one time but it sounds like we're going through the exact same thing. trying to move on and take better care of yourself because you can't count on anyone else to do it for you unless/until you do it for yourself. so keep your head up. it sounds like you're letting the emotions come as they will and dealing with them as they show up so that's all you can really do. so i'm here if you need someone who's going through something at least similar to talk to :)
Thank you so much! Seems like there are quite a few of us going through this right now, so knowing we are not alone is actually a comforting feeling. Knowing that we all can support each other in a time of need and know the other understands.
