    Hi

    I know you have been getting this a lot but I understand. I was with one of my ex's for 3 1/2 years, we split up in 2004 only 3 month before our wedding. He left me with a broken heart, no confidence and over £5000 worth of debt. It hurts so much and you feel like the only person in the world to have gone through this. But we are all here and you will find someone.

    I have just started a new relationship and I have really struggled to not put up my protective wall. I don't want to be hurt again, but every now and then you need to take a leap of faith.

    You took a leap of faith for 5 years, no one can blame you for that. I can also understand why you can't get rid of everything now, I only got rid of some of my Ex's things eariler this year! But try to remember you are worth 10 of him and no one around you will think bad of you.

    Enjoy a few days in bed and then get up and go outside in the sunshine. Spring is here and it is a perfect time to find 'you' again. You are not an extension of this man, you are your own person and deserve to experience life and enjoy it.

    But a few words of advice, trust your own instincts, they will never let you down and if in doubt tell us abuot it and we'll all give you our opinion!!!

    Take care and keep smiling :grouphug:
    Current debt - £16,300 :(
    Debt at worst 17/03/2011 - £18,067.62:eek::eek:

    Oh this is so rotten, life can be really cr*ppy sometimes;:mad: what works for me is to get absolutely stinking drunk, then the hangover is the biggest crisis, and that gets better quite quickly and you can't help but feel a bit better about life in general. With hindsight life would be perfect, and no one would make a mistake, and I can't help but think we'd all die of boredom. :eek:
    I'm sure there are few people on here who haven't been through similar - and if you haven't, good for you! :beer:
    It will get better, and the right person is out there somewhere, just hang on in there.
    Well I could quote all the cliches in the World, but instead I'll just add my very best wishes to all the others, and hope you feel better soon.
    One thing I've found, some things are beyond understanding, all you do is drive yourself round the bend, so best not waste your time trying to get your head round what a t0sser like that does, 'cos you never will :confused:

    Not much i can say that hasnt already been said, but if you want to cry then just do it, let it all out. No point trying to hold it in. Its the bodies natural way of letting off steam ;)
    Similar thing happened to me a few years ago, someone i loved and really cared about let me down in a big way. Not lies as such but many broken promises. In the end, as hard as it was i had to let go and finish it.
    I've now found someone who is totally different and wonder why i wasted my time with the other guy :rolleyes:
    Anyway you need to find something to take your mind off it, its hard to start with but will get easier and one day you'll find someone 100% better ;)
    Errrr...come back later ;)

    Hey babe,
    Take strength, i think 99% of us on here have been dopey delusional idiots, but that's why we're on here, because we've turned a corner.
    We'll sort you out.

    Where's the other 1% cos I sure haven't seen them :confused: .

    Buddiebabe what a tw*t he was, thankgoodness you've found out now. Be strong - that will be the best revenge. Take care xx
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

You howerver, full of love, affection, with real friends who care about you, will find the true love of your life when you least expect it, and in the meantime, enjoy being YOU. You sound lovely!

    That's not a hug, you're blatantly trying to cop a feel :p
    "Mrs. Pench, you've won the car contest, would you like a triumph spitfire or 3000 in cash?" He smiled.
    Mrs. Pench took the money. "What will you do with it all? Not that it's any of my business," he giggled.
    "I think I'll become an alcoholic," said Betty.
