Title: I snapped Post by: smartwoman220 on November 29, 2013, 12:38:25 PM I posted on the leaving board yesterday about something that clicked on in my brain. You guys may have read about the time I've had recently.
I went into a deep dark place in my heart recently, and It was harder that my initial break up with him. But Thanksgiving Eve, I snapped. Snapped right back into reality :) My thoughts really just settled with this: Its been a while since our breakup. Life is different now, and its ok for us both move on. I am on to new life lesson, and my journey will be filled with new experiences, and people who can make me smile and be a friend. His journey took him miles and miles away, space was but there for a reason beyond my control. Wasting time away, choosing to pine over someone who, even if they were in my life at this time, couldn't give me what I needed, is just wasting the gift of the present. Its ok for me to love him, but its time for me to release him with my love and blessings. Love is not possessive, and if it is meant to be, it will be. And IF that ever does happen, it will be right You see my friends, I had to look at this thing outside of the mental illness, and relate it t o my rational mind. Even folks who are completely sane can be emotionally unavailable at sometime in their life. I away knew that, and that is all this is. So I'll treat him as such, and it doesn't hurt so much when you don't take it so personal. We had some great times... .we didn't work out... .we love each other ( for what ever reasons, there is no debate) and now we have to go back out in the world to find the missing part ( what ever that might be) for each of us. It doesn't make him a bad guy because he isn't ready, it makes him human. And i can't expect him to handle me the way I would have handled him. We are two different people. So i ain't even mad lol I'll let him go free, and I swear, I feel like my load is lifted.
