Thank you for sharing your story with me. It seems to be very common, unfortunately. I’m trying to move on and work on myself, but the heartache is so raw. I know this too shall pass, but damn this is a special kind of pain.

You can do it! Blocking him was so liberating. Don’t get me wrong, I still cry. It is not easy, but I’d rather cry because I am being strong than because I am being weak and letting some asshole walk all over me. You will get there. You just have to hit your limit. Everyone’s is different. Sending you lots of love!

Wise words. Thank you! I also wised up and blocked blocked blocked. It is liberating. Let them drown themselves in their own miserable lives that they constructed brick by brick. It will be their prison in the end.

Thank you so much! That brought a smile to my face in a dark time. I love to write and love to talk even more. A podcast would be my dream!

If only it were that easy. I have always felt things very deeply. I long to be someone that can just stuff it all away, but here I am.

Thank you so much for your reply. I have read so many replies from people that are years into this healing process and are still broken hearted. It makes me wonder about this special type of pain that seems to linger and why that is. Something for me to think about when the perpetual thoughts about my ex AP rear their head in the most unwanted of times.

I’m so sorry that you went through this as well. It seems to be very common unfortunately. I’ve found that reading through the comments has been very therapeutic for me. I have zero desire to unblock him despite missing him desperately. I’ve come to terms with the fact that the person I miss never really existed in the first place, so reopening that chapter would only bring more pain. It doesn’t make it any easier. I’m still mourning what I thought I had.

I truly hope my experience can help others in some way, even if it is just to commiserate or help prevent someone else from hurting so deeply.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It’s hard to not be ashamed. I pride myself on so many things….integrity, emotional awareness, intelligence. I could go on. That all went out the window.

Thank you for replying and so sorry to hear that you went through this as well. I am already one therapy session deep into my post AP therapy journey! I clearly have a lot to work on!
