Hi Louise, I read your post and I know *EXACTLY* what you’re going through. Im in the same position right now. I’ll just give you a little background: my boyfriend was Lynnrd Skynnrds nephew and he thought he was God’s gift to the earth, women etc, very arrogant, super good looking and just really berated me every chance he got, cheated on me constantly, FORCED me to shave my head all the time and was just really mean. But then on the flip side he was so adorable, sweet, fun & charming. That’s what I always remember but I have to FORCE MYSELF to remember how he hit me, shaved my head, cheated on me, called me ugly and fat, etc. It’s like I have a block and can’t remember those times. I have to make myself though because I feel a sort of freedom since I left him 4 weeks ago. He literally had a new girlfriend within 2 days. So that shows how much he actually cared, hasn’t texted me, called me, nothing. GAME OVER. Time for us to move on. It’s hard and I try to think positive and interrupt my thoughts when I think of him because it’s useless because I am NEVER going back, so what’s the point in wallowing and thinking about him. I’ve cried enough.
There’ s a time to open doors and a time to shut them. Not everybody is suppose to be in our lives forever. We have to know when it’s time to move on and I think you and I both know, it’s over.
Im sorry you’re going through this right now, but stay strong. Don’t give in. I know I am NOT.
This too shall pass and we’ll be better people for it and smile back on this one day!
muuuwah! Vox
