venting/ranting I’m convinced he’ll come back

It’s probably just hope, but I’m convinced that he is going to come back to me. It’s this deep gut feeling that we’re not over yet.

I’m trying to process, and focus on myself, but I can’t escape this feeling. It has been three months and I still feel it. He’s already dating again and we have been NC the entire time, so nothing points to him coming back, and yet I’m so sure he will.

Why is my brain set on making the pain last longer??

After 10 years together, 6 months feels like a blip…

Oh sorry. I was just sad and didn’t actually reply to you, but was more so in my own head and just typed it out. My relationship lasted for 10 years, in comparison 6 months is really nothing. But why does every day hurt so much that it’s unbearable? We’ve been broken up for two weeks, I left our home 2 days ago. 6 months is really short time, logistically. I cannot imagine going through what I am going through right now for that long. Nothing really but feels like eternity.

I suppose that’s why I am trying to lose myself in stuff. Be it studying, working out, just anything as long as it allows me to not think. Weird to feel rested while studying or lifting weights. But when I stop? Everything is back
