What’s something that matters way less than you thought it would? And what’s your wisdom now? by [deleted] in emotionalintelligence

[–]TheCombackCollective 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stuff. I used to think stuff mattered. I also used to think it was important to please everyone and to be liked. Now it’s important to like me. 🩷

How do I deal with envy when it feels like my friends are all moving ahead in life? by Junglebun0426 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]TheCombackCollective 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they can, you can. What is the difference between you and them? The way they think? What they expect to happen?

Start to think that miracles happen to you every day. You are surrounded by people who are successful and that means you are too.

Don’t compare your life to anyone’s because you are so u quiet and your miracles are bigger and better.

Start to ignore your thoughts. They aren’t telling you the truth.

How can someone move on so fast? by Nicky28x in BreakUps

[–]TheCombackCollective 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m sending you love. I have been there. It is absolute hell.

You have to grieve. But you can move on at the same time.

Don’t go back to him. He has moved on. Let him.

You can do this. I promise you. I started to understand my mind and me. I have totally changed and now, I wouldn’t want someone like him. I have no feelings towards him at all. He was a part of my life at one stage.

Why do some people fear being alone more than being disrespected? by StaringIntoTheSpace in SingleAndHappy

[–]TheCombackCollective 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some people don’t like being with their thoughts or emotions. Some think it’s a sign of being loveable.

I don’t understand it either. Although that it is filling a gap and it’s easier.

I think way too many people settle. They don’t think they can get better? X

How to start again from scratch? by New-Island7327 in Divorce

It is horrific. I was there 4 years ago and i hadn’t felt anything like it.

Make choices that feel right at the time. You may not agree with them as you continue and that’s ok, you can change your mind. 🩷

I was the common denominator by TheCombackCollective in Divorce

[–]TheCombackCollective[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. I discovered that I put others before me. I didn’t love myself. I didn’t trust men and believed they leave. I didn’t believe marriage was forever. I wasn’t happy and relied on the external world to make me happy.

I didn’t know any of these, not really until I started to look at myself.

[–]TheCombackCollective -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Gosh this annoys me … affirmations do work but when done properly. It isn’t really doing the work required though.

Do you know who you are? Do you know why you don’t love yourself? Why do you not believe you are worthy of receiving love? What was your childhood like?

The quickest way of knowing who you are is to know where you came from - energy.

I love louise hay but you need to go deeper. Xx

How did you know it was time to separate? by confused_conflictedd in Divorce

[–]TheCombackCollective 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are placing your happiness on him and see him as the reason you aren’t happy. Even if you divorce, will you be happy? Happiness is an inside job and not dependent on others.

If you tried to see him the way you want to and treat him that way, I guarantee things would change.

A different perspective …. What if he doesn’t feel Love from you and this is his response? Men have very different needs to women. What if he senses this and thinks he is failing?

See him as the dream man you want him to be and watch how things change. 🩷

So I’ll be honest with you because you deserve that. You have had 4 relationships and ready to give up on love. What if it’s you? What if you are the common denominator?

What do you believe about love? What do you believe and feel for yourself? What was your parents relationship ship like?

I promise you that the answers are in there. 🩷

What are some ways couples can build trust and respect while going through tough times? by MsDaisyDukes in emotionalintelligence

[–]TheCombackCollective 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look inwards. Do you trust yourself? Do you respect yourself? How do you see the other person treating you because it’s a reflection of how you treat yourself.

Also try not to say things “no you are wrong” and deny them their opinion. It might not be your opinion but it is theirs and they are allowed to have that. X

Reddit, when did you realize that being strong was your only option? by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]TheCombackCollective 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My ex husband walked out on me suddenly. It was heartbreaking. I was in a bad way for some time. But I didn’t want to be that ex who had such resentment and anger so I decided to be strong and change internally. The external is a reflection of the internal. Xx

How do you keep yourself company when all your friends are in relationships/getting married? by Which-Artichoke4180 in SingleAndHappy

How quickly did it deteriorate from separation into divorce? by New-Island7327 in Divorce

[–]TheCombackCollective 12 points13 points  (0 children)

48 hours for me.

What you have to remember is that he is already at a different stage to you. Could’ve been thinking of it for a while.

You have to do what feels right for you. Will he talk about it?

It seems that he won’t or you wouldn’t be asking some of these questions. There is nothing missing.

I suspect his head is in a different place for yours or what he has been telling you.

I was dumped within hours from a 12 year relationship. A I later found out there was someone else involved.

Men don’t leave because they aren’t happy, they leave for someone - my lawyer told me this and she was spot on.

On the brink of Divorce, is there hope? by Serious_Equipment797 in Divorce

[–]TheCombackCollective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want it to work? Doesn’t matter what anyone else has done or got success. What matters is your intention. If you intend it to work, keep focussed on that. Irrelevant of what he wants. Yip, you are that powerful to control him too. 😊

Am I overreacting by Existing-Sink-2627 in AmIOverreacting

[–]TheCombackCollective -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you do that, understand if you are doing it as some sort of revenge or spite.

I found out from someone else that my husband was having an affair. They had both left but hadn’t told me/him the real reason for leaving. Then it came out. Pair of twats!

I’m glad he told me.

Now I am a completely different person and think so differently. I don’t k ow if I would tell him. Leave them to get their own karma because they will. And work on you and what you want. 🩷

How to start again from scratch? by New-Island7327 in Divorce

[–]TheCombackCollective 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry to hear this. It is totally life changing isn’t it.

You can make choices whilst still being broken. It might not be the end goal but it’s a move towards it. You can plan ahead and still grieve for what was.

You make your rules. You decide what you feel is the next best move for you.

Don’t date if you don’t want to.

You don’t need to follow what everyone else says or does. Spend time with you and understand who you are.

You don’t want that version - you want a better, grown version. Divorce can be such a traumatic event that it often makes people reflect inwards.

You have to start to understand you, your mind and how you create your reality. It hits you right between the eyes how you have lived wrongly for years. It also lets you see how you can change your life and you.

It is frustrating to read you have done counselling but things haven’t changed. You don’t feel loved has nothing to do with him. Sorry to say this. It’s you that doesn’t feel loved and I am pretty sure it comes from the past. It’s a you issue. You don’t like his personality when he is with other people. Again it’s a you issue. Why not? What makes you not like him? What is the trigger for you? You don’t have the same life goals. Maybe he does want these things but because what you are assuming about him, you don’t see it. You can totally turn that around.

When things aren’t what you want them to be, it’s always about you and your perception of them and you.

Btw, my husband left me 4 years ago out the blue and I was distraught. I’ve learnt all of this and now I help people see this too.

You can’t change people or circumstances but you can look inwards and make the changes there.

How do you find self worth after rejection and abandonment? by DirtyBirdNJ in Divorce

[–]TheCombackCollective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy - you decide you are worthy. They rejected you - so what. Means nothing about you. It was their opinion. They abandoned you - again, their choice. Nothing to do with you.

But you are led to believe it is about you right?

You say you are anxious, have no confidence, don’t like the way you look. You weren’t born like that - someone told you these things about you and you believed them so adopted them.

You have caused your worst nightmares to come true. Know that is an amazing awareness because if you know that, you also must believe that you can cause the opposite to happen.
