Long term partner left me for someone else last month, I suspected something was going on but was too scared to confront him. I came back from a weekend away with my best friend to find that he had moved out. No note or call. Two days later he announced a new relationship on Facebook.
I’m finding it incredibly difficult to stop feeling sheer jealousy over her. I wonder what she had that I didn’t and why he has chosen her. It feels as if I wasn’t good enough and my self esteem has diminished. I keep looking at social media to try to find out more. I hate the mishmash of feelings - sad, anxious, jealous, angry. I have never felt this consumed by my emotions before. I’m struggling to motivate myself to be busy, I just haven’t the energy and feel exhausted.
Has anyone managed to switch from this frame of mind? I still miss him and crave his presence.
