Title: Things are still hard but self worth is improving and this is why
Post by: snappafcw on November 05, 2013, 01:27:56 PM
Hi guys!

10 months down the line since I broke up with my exBPDgf and I still get sad.The rejection the lack of empathy has stung my every being but over the months things have slowly gotten easier and I am even closer to the point of acceptance. The issue honestly did come down with me. Due to a non validating or supportive childhood it has always been hard to see or savour my achievements I would always undersell my abilities way too much and raise the bar way too high... .

What I have realised is career wise and achievement wise while not perfect (im still on my journey) I am actually doing quite well. I have some fun adventures coming up so why would I want to be with someone who puts me down or doesn't support me or get excited for me. I want to be with someone who feels warm when they see the sparkle in my eye and I want to do the same for my partner as well. I think this is real progress for my feelings and I just wanted to share.
