    Oh sweetheart, hope you're ok xx. It does seem like the best thing for you, but realise that's probably no comfort right now.

    I was upset during the conversation, as ive never ended one before and it was hard trying to explain it and find the right words. But i got there in the end. Ive never had the strength to do that before, even when deeply unhappy. But i found some strength today and feel ok. *hugs*

    ((MU)). Well done for being brave and ending it, even though it feels terrible just now. You deserve to be someone's priority.

    Thank you

    I am actually ok. If i compare this to my break up with my other ex in august i'm coping much better. But maybe thats because mentally i've been preparing myself for this. He's taken it surpisingly well, and assures me he'll be ok. I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shouders. I do still car for him but in the last few weeks espcially as he was withdrawing i found my feelings were weakening. And i realised i was unhappy.

    I do feel ok, so dont worry about me. :)

  • Yes, well done MU xxxxx

    LOL at mushroom dropping on your head, WaS! And sympathies on the paranoia attack - yes, I can see how that would make you (or anyone, I mean) paranoid! And what a lovely thought for WaSP!

    Ugly is how someone's face goes when they are doing something mean.

    Hugs, warm handshakes and love to all those that would like some xxxxx

    Ah!! But!! Now. Here's the thing...............maybe in the mushroom universe, there is the fungi equivalent of the lucky birdplop falling on your head.

    Maybe it's a lucky mushroom!

    Or........maybe it's the way that ceiling mushrooms choose their Queen!
    Maybe WaS is now Queen of the Mushroom People!






    MessedUp, take the credit. As you know all too well, it is easy to keep telling yourself that everything is ok, and that next time will be better, whilst drawing a veil over all the little signs and signals that are really saying the opposite.

    You listened to what those signs and signals were saying, thought about it and concluded that the relationship should end. That is admirable, the more so because you care for him. Well done. It must have been very hard. ((((((((()))))))))
    Have a good rest, and try not to think. :A

    I love :eek:



  • We've talked.

    And it's over.

    I feel ok though. Its for the best. Its still raw. But i know deep down i;ve done the right thing for us both. Life is too shirt to be unhappy.

    You're worth more than a relationship where you have to be a 'secret'. I don't know the details, but he didn't care enough for you to be proud of you being in his life. You're better off out of it.

    You've done the right thing, well done! And I hope you soon find a nice caring person who is proud to have you by his side xxxxx
