Better alternative

Found out that the guy i was dating and falling in love with who suddenly ended things with me because he didn’t feel i was the one, is back on dating apps after a week . I would usually drive immediately to the liquor store to handle this pain and heart drop and anxiety over knowing he’s going to find someone else while I’m still grieving , i decided to stop , take a deep breathe , took a hot shower and drank some tea . This doesn’t sound like much but I feel proud that i decided to face my pain instead of run from it

I heard this saying the other day
“Rejection is God’s protection”
This saying has helped me through the worst times when it comes to relationships ending…

That's a lot honey :heart: you frickin killed it today!!!! And don't forget, just because someone is dating right away, it doesn't mean they're done processing and/or grieving. Some people shove it down and start something new, and aren't ready to grow from their experiences. :sunflower:

Stay strong. I know that it’s hard. I find what works for me is being fine alone. I really enjoy time with myself. Once you are totally solid by yourself if a person comes or goes it’s on your terms and you are fine.

So proud of you! He did you a big favor. God will find you some one special!!!

Be your own person and live your own life! You existed before him…. And you’ll exist after!!

I’m triggered by abandonment scenes in movies, lol. Thanks for talking about this, it reminds me to be kind.

Good job on not going right back to the bottle. It means you are finding different coping mechanisms.
