Do you think it’s a bad idea to keep living with my ex? I feel like it’s helping me to grow in lots of ways, but can definitely see why it could impede both of our healing. The ways it’s helping me to grow though are: forcing me to really let go and rid myself of feelings of jealousy and control, allowing me to live where I want and in the house I chose, giving me impetus to change the part of myself that are not serving me anymore. The way it’s hurting me though are: jealousy at the thought of him dating someone else, having a reminder of what we used to have and what I don’t have any more. Those feelings are fading as time moves on though, and as I keep working within this larger change. I’m becoming more and more accepting that I cannot control whether or when we will get back together, and accepting that life will unfold in the way that it is meant to. I just don’t want to completely botch my chances either.
