Dear U:
I view your question to be: “how do you move on from.. the feeling of loneliness and worthlessness”?
You asked the question following a description of a relationship that ended, but the “loneliness and worthlessness” feelings are connected to core beliefs you have had from before you met your ex girlfriend.
One the logical level of thinking, you figured out why this relationship ended: your ex girlfriend misunderstood love to be equal to ” sparks and butterflies” and you correctly understood that “love is something bigger than sparks and butterflies. It’s called respect and commitment.”
So, knowing your understanding is correct (and I agree with it) and that her understanding is incorrect, why the devastating feelings of worthlessness?
Would you like to go deeper into these feelings and examine their origin and how they presently affect your life?
