Two things:

1. I'll always do the rescue mission no matter the distance

2. Your writing since the break up has been raw, fiery and deeply moving

We need to make more room for relationship grief. Took me a good 6 months plus to get over just a 2 month relationship last year. Also youre totally right, youre grieving two things! Also also (lol) - you being 'over it' doesnt automatically mean you have to talk to him. Thats extremely entitled on his part. You being over it can still mean never wanting to speak to him again because he lost any rights he has to you!

I so agree and often it's more painful when short term relationships end too as it's still in that hope and optimism stage so I'm sorry to hear of your experience. And yes I don't want to talk to him, you're right!! Thanks for reading and commenting. Much appreciated 💪

Beautifully said! I can so relate. A relationship that I thought was my one ended when I was 32 and honey - I am still getting over it and I am 51! lol. But seriously - it took a long time. It takes as long as it takes. I learned to not judge my process and to be kind and compassionate with the aspects of myself that were holding onto him and that grief for dear life. I had to love them more than I loved him or my attachment to him. How you relate to yourself while you go through pain, grief and loss IS the issue more than the issue. Anyhow - light ahead to healing and allowing yourself to just BE where you are right now. It moves through us more quickly when we just allow it. Blessings and hugs.

Very beautiful writing! Without knowing you and without trying sound like a knower of all things, things will get better if you work on loving yourself first.

Please look up this book, I think it could really help: "Gaslighting & Narcissistic Abuse Recovery"
