I get along with and really like both of them and I do feel happy for them, really. So why am I so desperately, desperately sad then?
FWIW, I really don't want him back. He's great but we're utterly incompatible and when I broke it off a big part of the reason was that I just couldn't envisage spending a lifetime with someone I was already no longer in love with after just 7 years (much as I did and continue to love him in a non-romantic sense). We basically managed the perfect textbook amicable divorce, have stayed genuine friends and help each other out with both personal and business matters regularly. We may have been kind if a shit couple, but, boy, did we ace our break up and subsequent divorce!
I'm now 35 and single. No DC, though I would technically like them - just not on my own! Had two MC while still married (which I handled quite well despite the obvious sadness), so maybe that's part of why I'm so very upset now. I have a very good career, six figure salary actually, and technically have no reason at all to be unhappy with life. I do suck at the whole romance thing, though, having literally not met any man I even wanted a third date with since the divorce.
TBH, I have no idea why I'm so very upset, but I really want to be curling up in a corner and bawling my eyes out. Which is also not actually an option, seeing as I'm on a flight to a 3 week training course shortly.
Not sure what I'm even asking except maybe: how to I stop feeling so utterly miserable?
