Dear annema:

Luckily you only feel your heart breaking. It is not breaking. But it feels like it.

When you wrote above:”I’m sure he is hurting.”- that may be your inaccurate projection of your pain into him. “Sounds good” is not an indication of his pain. He may be hurting, but you have no evidence of that, do you?

I wish you were not experiencing pain over this. I understand, I believe, the nature of it. You refuse to let go, emotionally, of the hopes and dreams, the story of how it was supposed to be.

Please do post again and do things to soothe yourself, such as taking a hot bath, listening to relaxing music…
