^^ Yes it's the hardest thing to ever go through. When I had a break-up it was deadly. Time helps very much, so does crying, screaming, staying in bed and not giving a f***. Then after some time it slowly but surely gets better. http://youtu.be/cqM76XnXcxA IP: Logged |

It's been a long time since I had to deal with this, thank God.  But what I did was, when the phone rang and I didn't know who it was, I told myself, "That's him. He's calling to apologize and get back together!" Then I had this conversation with myself: Me: "You know it's not him." Me: "Yes it is. Could be!" Me: "Okay so what if it's him?" Me: "He's a jerk, actually...hmmm...." Me: "So would you really even WANT to talk?" Me: "No.......I guess I wouldn't." Me: "So there you go."  IP: Logged |

Hey ariesdragonThanks for hte invite to the thread for better or worse.  Since I haven't healed I'll post my signs and then eventually a bit about the issue. I think I've been more interested in astrology since the mess though. So it's not all bad right? hehe Venus: Leo Mars: Gemini Moon: Scorpio

Astrology is a great thing to throw yourself into when trying to heal. It teaches you a little about the situation and more importantly about yourself. It may not make you feel any better, but it's comforting in it's honesty.

Ceri your story seems real to meee it is also inspiring. Knowing you're not the only one in pain in the world is comforting. My soul feels traumatized as well after a break up. Thanks for your sharing your wonderful story and you know I gots mad love for ya IP: Logged |

No, I didn`t know that. Tell me about it.  But seriously, I feel for you. Losing love or even the dream of love can bring excruciating pain. But the good is, life still moves on.

Ceridwen ... and I say this seriously albeit smilingly, *a sympathetic smile,* your 300 pages of poems must represent an artist's dream ... a soul's rendition of 'The Original Work of Pathos' ... if you know what I mean. My 1H Venus in Taurus and 2H Merc. in Gem say get them published  "Even though I am clearly over it by now, I still feel traumatized by it in a way, like I can still feel the scars on my soul."
Yep, just as your brain carries memories of it. Regardless of whether or not *it* was real, the emotions you felt were real. And that's what matters. That you were able to sublimate some of the pain through creativity is a blessing.  IP: Logged |

Wow! That's intense! Yep! I'm nodding in complete agreement. You feel it like a physical pain. Sometimes when I feel really intensely, I wish that I had Sheldon's brain ... you know, the one from The Big Bang Theory ... one of my favorite all time consistently funny shows. I mean, the guy is so hysterically clueless, that I think sometimes, just sometimes, it would be good to turn off our emotional motors.  IP: Logged |

R u kidding me?? That's crazy! And yet is doesn't surprise me. I can only say I've experienced 2 'lost loves'. Normally with breakups I tend to retreat for a lil bit and I'm good. Not a big deal. But with lost loves, I'm very emotional about it to the point I get physically ill bc I'm that upset and take it so personal. Example: I got really painful migraines. I'm emotional anyways so that's to b expected lol but wow I didn't realize all that. Makes ya stop and think.[/QUOTE] Yeah huge migraines. I had insomnia for a year and a half over it. It really does feel like your heart dies. IP: Logged |

I think for me. The reason it hurt so much was not cos he cheated on me, but that he had to take advantage of my trust in him. And the power he had over me, that he had to milk it for all I was worth. Like wring me dry lol. One person can really screw your perception on people and emotions. I actually wish I can go back to having a more positive outlook on people's intentions and motives. Now it's all changed.
