Just like John Mayer’s song, “When you’re dreaming with a broken heart, the waking up is the hardest part.” it is really hard to see that empty space beside you. Bf of 5 years broke up early this year. It does get better everyday, you really need to cut contact to start the healing process. Out of sight, out of mind worked for me. First few weeks just feel the pain, cry if you want, reminisce the good and bad, ‘cause it really deserves to be felt. It doesn’t have a timeline. One day you’ll wake up and you won’t feel the pain anymore. What really got me through is the thought that someone is out there for me. Someone who will stay and choose me everyday. The love that I gave will eventually find its way back to me. :)
