I heard from someone on here that the first 4 months are the hardest. Is that true?
I can attest to that. I am over 5 mths out and it is getting easier and easier. My focus is way less on him and way more on me and my future. Hang in there, allow yourself to feel the grief. You cannot go around it, only through it. Don't take it as a sign you need her back, it is a normal stage. I still find myself struck with grief from time to time but lately I have been feeling like I don't even like him anymore. I am starting to get into what my real values are and I realise that my ex shared none of my core values. No wonder I wasn't able to have any boundaries with him. This withdrawal is normal. Keep looking forward.
