My LDR of 2 years recently broke up with me just under 2 weeks ago, a month before we were meant to see eachother. We had spent 5 months apart, the longest we had ever been, since last we saw eachother which was ultimately the reason for our relationship’s demise and seems to have killed her interest in it. It has been awful and lonely, and I pray every day that she reconsiders (although I fear the distance will highly disincentivise this), but in a sense I’m grateful for the pain as it’s forcing me to come to terms with improving my current external / internal environment and lack of fulfillment rather than using flying to see her as a form of escapism.
Regardless, the breakup after the long time apart and short time before I would’ve seen her is having some weird effects on my psyche and is causing me to hyper-idealise things that remind me of her and her country. For context, I live on one side of Europe and she on the other.
Even though I’ve cleared my living space / phone / social media of her I see ghosts of her everywhere, whether it be people or things that remind me of her family that sends me down the mental rabithole of remembering how lovingly they treated me; anything resembling Mediterranean culture reminds me how wonderfully hospitable everything and everyone was there and how societally (and literally) cold Northern Europe is in comparison. I’ve noticed I miss not only her but the entire circumstance surrounding her. It hurts that I’ll likely never be able to experience her country in the same way again.I know logically that the improvement in my quality of life and inevitable time for healing will help me reclaim my surroundings, but is there any method to disassociate them with her so I’m not anxious whenever I’m exposed to things that indirectly remind me of her? I feel this is particularly holding me back.
Many thanks.November 24, 2016 at 6:12 pm #121060AnonymousGuestDear jawn:
You are remembering only the good about her, her family, culture and country. This often happens when we lose something or when we feel lost, we remember the past as way more positive than it was. You can make a list of the negatives about your experience with her and focus on a negative when you are caught in an overly positive memory. This way you associate reality to your experience and dissociate from distorted (overly positive, idealizing) reality.
Every time you see the good, in your mind’s eye, add the bad and the ugly as well.

From what you have described it looks like you still have the energetic cords (ties) of attachment with this person, their family members and their external environment. These cords are invisible since they are at an energetic level. They are also called as psychic ties.
All you have to do is cut the energetic cords of attachment to get it out from your head.Please go through the below links to know more on what it is-
(http://ascendedrelationships.com/cutting-energy-cords/)(http://www.soulconnection.ca/cord-cutting.html)
Calling upon Archangel Michael with his golden sword is a very famous way of cutting negative cords-
(http://www.nikkiboruch.com/how-to-cut-energetic-cords-with-archangel-michael)There are many ways of doing this. Simply do a web search on “cutting energetic cords of attachment”
Also if you prefer something visual then there are lots of videos on YouTube too.
Best Regards,

Greece’s economy moved beyond swirling the bowl and is somewhere downstream of the toilet. Italy’s isn’t all that great either, same for Spain’s. There are some interesting genetic traits to deal with the climate down there. Go across to the other side of the Sea, and well, there’s not much grand over there.
Strange; northern Europe ranks pretty high in livability, including Norway, Sweden, etc.. Would love to go see it, if I could ever get enough tranquilizers to handle the flight. Haven’t had too many issues with the northern Europeans I encounter out in the Dakotas. Too bad none of the female Finns I’ve encountered are particularly interested… between my British Isles ancestry (queue up Welsh names) and the Finns’ apparent love for vowels in strange places, could have some interestingly named kids…
