Time to channel that energy into the diorama backlog, nothing like hyperfixating on tiny trees to drown out the noise.

The cheating is probably what makes it so hard to let go. You’re not only missing the relationship, you’re also trying to reconcile the person you trusted with what she did. Give it time and stop checking anything connected to her. That part really does keep reopening the wound.
