Michelle,

Thank you so much for such an articulate and helpful post. It has helped more than you know.

I lack confidence in the belief that the future holds better things. I don’t know how to increase that faith. Essentially, I don’t want to be unhappy.

I guess what people are saying is this- cut all contact, I will feel lost & broken, but maintain it….and one day I’ll feel better? I’ll stop hurting at every thought of him? If this is the truth, I will try it. x
