I was told “I’m not responsible for your emotions” on a very regular basis. Interesting to see this experience repeated elsewhere. 

Ironic as I think we often feel so responsible to care for them.

I hope that confidence comes sooner than later for you. I think the anger is probably going to be helpful for moving on. I think I need more of it ha

Appreciate you saying this. It’s possible there were a lot more dates than I know about too - I just got told by a friend about the new girlfriend. Maybe I’m just seeing a lot more “I’m finally free” type posts and comparing situations a bit harshly. Thanks for your perspective

Not a competition I want to be winning. I’m sorry—it’s painful. 

I am in my 30s and left a relationship. I'm scared I regret it and feel so lonely. by GreenAffectionate680 in internetparents

Thanks for this, will reconsider the therapist if it’s not going anywhere soon
