On my own again

Hi everyone,

Just looking to see if anyone is in a similar situation and sees a light at the end of a very dismal tunnel?

My partner of 2 1/2 yrs left me two months ago. Just walked out. He lived with me and my two sons. I haven't heard from him since, just completely cut me off.
This was my first relationship since I divorced 6 years ago and I totally trusted him. Took a while after a very traumatic divorce.

Anyway, so here I am, on my own again...I'm finding it very difficult to comes to terms with it. Very lonely and extremely disillusioned with everything.

Has anyone been through a second break up? I thought I'd cope better since I've lived alone before but I'm struggling.

Thanks,
Pixie

I understand that feeling, I felt like I was cheating on him the first couple of dates, but then I went on a date that was really good! Nothing has come of it but it has helped me to see there is life after my ex.

You need to do what's right for you...it just takes time. I found dating helped but maybe you could try something else? Joining clubs? Exercise? Just something to distract you and help you to concentrate on you.
Sending all good thoughts your way...let me know how you're doing...

Saw her yesterday kids played together on way home from school she played with them just like old times. She seemed happy playing. We chatted. She's so beautiful. Words can't describe. We stood together and I got lost in her eyes. I texted her later and said how good it was to see kids together again. She agreed. We texted back and forth through the evening. Nothing about getting together. I'm still in love but she's with someone else.
