anitaParticipantDear Adalie: From what I remember you sharing, the only reason you’re still in the relationship was financial.. Is it?

AdalieParticipantJake has unfriended me on Facebook. It makes me sad and it hurts my heart and it shouldn’t. But it does it makes me feel like I dont matter or never did. I was on his Facabook the whole time till just now. Maybe for the best.

Thomas168ParticipantThe English poet once said, “It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”
Don’t know how true this saying is cause I know how much it hurts to lose love.
But, got to believe there is something better coming.December 13, 2025 at 5:49 pm #452946
AdalieParticipantIts my fault for meeting up with him and letting something happen. He kept me there this whole time until now. Kinda stupid that im hurt by being unfriended. Dosent help that my husband also said hurtful unkind things this morning. But this is hurting me more. There was never a relationship there just one day and no communication. I didn’t matter enough

Thomas168ParticipantAdalie said, “Its my fault for meeting up with him and letting something happen.”
Did it provide you with any happiness? I understand you are taking responsibility. But, it takes two to tango?
Everybody wants to find happiness. Unfortunately happiness has to be in you first. Another person can’t provide it.Adalie said, “Kinda stupid that im hurt by being unfriended.”
When is rejection ever not hurtful? It is only natural to feel this way.Adalie said, “There was never a relationship there just one day and no communication. I didn’t matter enough”
You matter. Just not to him. It does hurt to be used and cast away.
Never forget that you do matter. Just got to find the right person.
It is tough to know when to let the heart go because one can be hurt so easily.I hope you have better days ahead of you. Friends do help??
I know there is nothing I can say to get you out of this funk, hurting.December 13, 2025 at 7:49 pm #452949

(Wow, Thomas- excellent reply!)
Dear Adalie:
Like Thomas said, it’s natural to feel hurt when rejected. I know that kind of hurt. I imagine everyone does.
You are not alone in how you feel, and you WILL feel better.

anitaParticipantHow are you feeling today, Adalie?
December 15, 2025 at 10:27 am #452990
AdalieParticipantThank you for responding to everything and giving me someone to talk to. I appreciate it will be okay i think it just hurts. Ny marriage isnt helping either and I feel stuck but I dont think it will be that way forever just stuck right now. Just confused and hurt. Maybe I mattered to the other person in the moment when we met up but he probably isnt mature enough emotionally to handle anything beyond. He was kind and gentle and that does matter.

anitaParticipantDear Adalie:
You are very welcome. I hope that your marriage resolves somehow and that your confusion and hurt lessen and lessen. I am glad to read that “it will be that way forever”, so, there’s hope for something new and better. Please post anytime you need someone to talk to. I am here.
🤍 Anita
