I have a lot of break ups as I tend to choose a lot of knob ends.
I know this has to stop so I am taking a break from the dating scene for ages and having counselling.
My most recent break up really hurt me, even though it was for the best. I had just started a difficult job in teaching and I felt that the pain from the split affected my performance. We split up partly due to his displeasure that I had a new job anyway.
Earlier last year I had an ill fated relationship with a weed smoker. I hate weed. I was advised to dump him but I thought I was in love so kept going. When he finally dumped me due to my anxiety it really shook me up and I was a mess for at least a month. Is there any way to take these inevitable splits on the chin a bit more?
Apart from choosing better men that is? My most recent ex said so many lovely things about me when we split and yet I still feel hurt and bitter. That is subsiding now and I feel more at peace!
