Missing my ex but he has treated me appallingly

[Racmactac]

That's it really. I'm really missing him, the cuddles, someone to chat to, we had some good times but he has been very unkind since splitting up.
I can't get back with him for a whole load of reasons but when does it get easier.

Unfortunately it takes as long as it needs to for you to get over a breakup. I’m just about ok now after a number of flings and nearly 3 years... need to start adulting now.

I think when you've been with someone for a long time and you loved them, I don't think you ever really stop hurting if they've done horrible things I just think you learn how to live with it. My ex boyfriend destroyed me, he didn't just break my heart he shattered it - things happen and old feelings with resurface but I'm not that person anymore and these bad things that happen make us into stronger people xx

I think that in the beginning you miss the familiarity of it, you miss human contact and your mind goes back to what you know.
I found that it helped me to read my ex's nasty emails. After just a couple I was so relieved that I could close the email and not have to deal with him again.
You'll be ok. No one should be with someone who treats them badly. Believe it. Demand it.

I just want to wake up and not think about him.
I can't believe that someone I loved so much could be so vile and nasty and tell such lies.
I never thought I could hurt like this

I don’t think it matters how long you were together. I genuinely miss my most recent ex of only 6 months more than I did my fiancé of much much longer. Time is a healer and hopefully, you will find someone worthy of your love
