Can someone please help me stop spiralling?

Engagements, engagements, engagements. Everyone arrived me is getting engaged. Just got into work and someone has gotten engaged.

My ex and I were on the cusp of that and just recently broke up. Been a week now since we've spoken.

I just feel gutted. It feels like everyone else is moving to that stage and my life is falling apart.

I'm not an early 20s this is my first rodeo girl either. I'm mid 30s. I'm just so so so so sad and life feels really unfair at the moment.

It's hard but you just need time, and to get back out there when you're ready. Are the practicalities of the spilt all sorted or is there anything hanging over that's keeping ties?

Plenty of people meet partners and get married in their 30s and later so you have plenty of time xx

I’m so sorry.

My grandmother met and married my grandfather at 35, then they had dc. Before that, she was engaged to a man she loved and he broke it off at the last minute as his family didn’t approve due to religious differences. She was devastated, then met the love of her life a short while after. If things worked out for her first time round, I wouldn’t be telling you this now. Yes it’s awful now, but I am sure things will fall into place for you ❤️xx

Put on Taylor Swift, bath, holiday booking, party with friends, book a spa day.
If it wasn't right you've done the right thing. You don't want to be with a guy who isn't a good fit just to keep up with the others, who are all probably doing just that. No point getting engaged just to get divorced! Plus think of all that money you've saved!

I've never married and honestly am pretty glad for that every day. Having bad health is far worse than being single, trust me!

I'm so sorry, op. For as awful as heartbreak is, investing more years into a relationship that was never going to work is far worse.

No practicalities to deal with and blocked on everything. It's so horrible.

I’m so sorry @JamSandle . Hope things are looking a lot brighter for you very soon. He owes you closure and if it turns out he is too cowardly to give you that then he really is not worth a second more of your time xx
