Title: It hurts
Post by: Carguy on February 08, 2021, 10:38:05 PM
So I backed off from chasing my ex BPD and today I seen her in public with another guy. It appears I've been replaced. It hurts and saddens me. I've been struggling the last few days with missing her. One song that I have recently come to love brought tears to my eyes yesterday while I was driving. I'm trying to dedicate to myself and workout while trying to heal but I'm struggling.

I have noticed the last few days that my mind is trying to go to dark places again. I am trying to keep it from going there but I find it wandering there from time to time. I keep trying to pull my mind away from there.

I know it likely won't last going off of her past relationships that I know of. From what I know they haven't lasted more than a few months with the exception of me. If I'm honest I do find a little comfort in that but it does not stop the hurt.

Sometimes I wish I could just completely erase her from my mind. Kind of like the movie 'The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.'

Actually I just read this article yesterday.  I remember reading it a few years back but it was good to read it again.
