Ended the relationship lonely and nervous

[Sweetsweets]

So I ended my toxic 4 yr relationship after being given a whole new good reason, I want to stay out of it, but I feel very lonely and scared the feeling of being on my own forever makes me feel like ending it all, I’m 48 and feel totally lost!

Oh OP you've done the right thing and I know you'll be ok sending you a hug 🤗 good luck with everything

Focus on the positives. This toxic person is out of your life, reason to celebrate rather than be that miserable you want to end it. I hope you're just being dramatic and don't mean it. You have everything to live for now. Don't think about what tomorrow looks like, take each day as it comes. You're only 48, still loads of life left in you. Give yourself time to reflect on what went wrong and learn to love yourself again - before you look for another relationship - as that's where many people fall into the same habi

I left a toxic relationship after 20 years.It can be done! Yes- it will feel daunting at first. Whatever you do DON’T go back to him. Even if he says ‘ I’ll never do it again’ ‘ you are my world’
blah , blah, blah. It’s all manipulation.
Seek help ( practical and emotional) from online or a trusted group/ person.
Build up your confidence by doing some things that you enjoy- however little.
Your new life of freedom starts here. Heal yourself before you try to get into another relationship.
Take one day at a time and thank your lucky stars that you got out of this relationship now.
