6 weeks no contact

[Applecrumbling]

6 weeks since he, the ex partner of 4 yrs caused damage in mine and my ds home when we were out.. Haven't seen him since. I'm getting by and much better than I was but at times funding it hard and like our whole relationship was a dream, didn't happen.. I need encouragement to keep going, keep telling myself it's over, I don't talk about it much as don't get opportunity.. He wasn't for me, he became abusive but I miss him, the way we were when we first met.. I'm 38, would love another child and don't want to be alone forever. But I'm finding it hard, moved on from exh and here I am again.. Just need strength..

Six weeks and no contact shows that you do have strength. Keep reminding yourself that he was abusive, violent and think about the happier life you will have with your DS where you are not living half a life. You can do it OP.

Well done Apple. 6 Weeks NC is a real achievement. Keep going and try to keep as busy as you can - i have signed up to anything and everything and meet everyone ive ever known for coffee / dinner etc as often as i can. I'm exhausted and my house is a tip but it stops me sitting in and dwelling (I realise this is more difficult to do with DC).

Well done, keep telling yourself how well youre doing. Remember this has freed you to meet someone else in the future who will be much more deserving of you.

Well done, Keep on keeping on. One day at a time.

Thank you, was having a lull yesterday, they keep happening. Yes I'm keeping v busy also taking ads. I'm the same elsabelle accepting all invites, my house was a tip but have caught up now.. How long have you been split Elsabelle? Luckily we didn't live together and no financial ties. No children together. I feel v let down..think I'm in and out of denial, just have to keep going..

Hi Apple, how you doing today?

I've been split 5 months, NC for about 2. I am doing much better but still have some very sad moments, i think cos it was all so unexpected from my side. I also feel like the whole thing was a dream! Noone has ever treated me this badly and its very hard to try and get over the hurt and betrayal even though i feel im getting over him as a person pretty well - can see him for what he is now and wouldnt want him back. Yey!

Yeah think we just have to keep on keeping on. Surely in time it'll be ok?!
