OverwhelmedBard

679d

Hi, I'm new to this but I think I'm ready to talk to people who might understand what I'm going through. Recently got broken up with my boyfriend of 4 years while I am visiting family, and now tomorrow, I have to travel back to our place, get my things and move back home after almost two years of living together. We didnt really end on a bad note, but like the timing has been pretty terrible as I've had multiple family emergencies, a family friend is passing away, and now, this. I'm struggling to keep my self calm and collected for my family. I burst into tears randomly and just scream/cry when I'm alone, which in retrospect makes me feel a little better. But at this point I'm struggling to even bring myself to talk vocally anymore. It's been, really really hard.

      @OverwhelmedBard Well I'm glad you have someone you can talk to. It is important to express you emotions right now and make sure you're not keeping things bottled up. I'm glad for you that it doesn't seem like your breakup is a messy one. That always makes it a little easier. But not less painful.

      No matter what don't isolate yourself. It will only make it harder to go through that alone

        @UnderTheFigTree I've decided not to and to look at this like a new chapter, my ex and I are going to stay friends and I dont harbor any bad feelings toward him, he's always been a wonderful person and I cant wait to see how we grow and see what kind of people we'll be :) while this is still depressing, I think thinking of it like this is a little more easier to handle

      I am so sorry you are going through all of this right now. Any break up is hard, and two years is a long time. Now your life is changing again. So it is totally normal to feel emotional. I'm sorry you feel alone. Do you have any then you could reach out to to talk to maybe? I know right now This is a very hard difficult time for you. But remember you will get through this. And things will get better. And in time your heart will heal.

        @BrokenOwlGirl I do have friends I can reach out to, I've been talking to one, but so far he can only understand only a portion of what I'm going through. But right now it's hard because people are angry for me because they dont like seeing me so upset, but I keep trying to tell them, I'm not mad at my ex. He was very wonderful and kind to me. But he just doesnt think he can be what i need while he tries to do what he needs to do to better himself. It's been very hard on both of us.
