Hi all,
Any advise much needed!
I'm starting a new job on monday, however ive jusy split with my partner. Im anxious and can eat and sleep. Im not acruallu terrified starting my job and dont want ro go!.
Could say its my own fault as i acrually rold him i didnt want it anymore as hes messed me about 2.5 years, the last 5 months he actually decided he was in love with ne so tried makinh it work. However we had a chat about the future a couple of days back and he said he never wants to live together as likes his own space. I said we may as well end things then as i want to settle down and 'eventually live together.
He text me yesterday and aaid he would ring last night, however he didnt and went out drinkinh instead and ignored my phone call and text.
Im at a loss. I love him so much.

Why are you frightened about starting a new job? Everyone is nervous when they start a new job its perfectly normal.
As for the boyfriend your wasting your time and he is not worth your love.
You have a great opportunity a new job a fresh start go for it.

Firstly, good luck with the new job.

Secondly, I'd actually cut the ex some slack here. It's the end of an era for him & you ended it so can no longer call the shots & expect him to ring etc.

This is the start of the rest of your life. Make it brilliant Smile

Libs I'm sorry but sometimes you really have to soldier on. Is there some friends you can see today or go out and get some fresh air?

Try and see this as a new start from Monday. Your ex doesn't want the same things as you. He is allowed to have his own path as are you and sometimes those paths are just not in the same direction.

You will meet someone else. In the meantime focus on you, get some exercise, be kind to yourself, hang out with people that love you, family or friends. Have a clear out at home.

Monday, deep breath, shoulders back, game face on....sometimes you have to fake it xxx
