Title: angry and sad
Post by: redkong on December 17, 2013, 02:52:52 PM
Today I'm just overwhelmed by the aftermath of being with and breaking up with my ex BPDgf.  She came into my life, spun like a tornado, and now I'm left to deal while she moves on.  She actually has a profile on a dating website (all the fluffy positive stuff about herself - the same mirage I fell for).  At the same time, she keeps contacting me, says she thinks about me every day.

Angry.  Sad.

Done, but still dealing.  Trying hard to move on.

I'm starting therapy tomorrow.

I can relate.  I just returned home in the pouring rain from a place we shopped routinely, it was ALL I could do to get home before the tears fell.  Confession? I actually started looking at Christmas cards to send, WOW what is wrong with me?

:'( :'(

CiF, I can relate. My tears have been flowing freely today in spite of my best efforts.  I'm here for you in support, sorry you're having a hard day as well.

If it helps - sad and angry are the appropriate emotions for what you are going through 

The 3T Cure:  time, tears, therapy

It will work and you will get to feeling better and you will find a strength inside you had no idea was there.

Hang in there redkong - this too shall pass.

Peace,

SB

Thanks SB.  It helps to know these are normal feelings.  I've got the tears part covered and will begin therapy tomorrow.  Time of course is beyond our control, but does pass.  I appreciate your support.
