Dear hannahl:

I am glad you use your thread to express your emotions. I am also glad you received comfort from your sister and are feeling better. Your last post is not only positive but realistic- you do expect to feel worse again (before feeling better yet again).

He gave up on the total five months relationship not because you are unworthy or unlovable- farthest from the truth. Really, his ending of the relationship has nothing to do with your worth and lovability.

What you are experiencing is natural- you became attached to this man and your attachment is broken, undone. So you will feel better, then worse, then better… and over time the “worse” won’t be as bad and it will be less and less frequent.

And you are welcome. Thank you for your kind words. Please, do post anytime you feel like.
