How I did it: Just worked it out. I try to tell myself that my ex did what he could with what he had, but I know that's a lie. I just think about my dog when we were together and happy. He was awesome and such a good boy. He used to lay in my arms on his back so I could kiss his belly and when we took a nap, he'd crawl under the covers with me. That is what I want to remember, not how mad someone made me.
Lessons & tips: Let yourself be angry. I felt bad for being angry. Once I owned it, it passed rather quickly.
Resources: My girlfriend, pictures of the Bean and walking. Just crying it out helped a lot too.

Thanks for your post, the thing about feeling bad about being angry is really recognisable for me.
Smartest snail Guess who starts her dream job on Monday...
our mothers raise us thinking the way they did. Women don’t get angry or speak up. At least mine didn’t. In 2008, guess what, I get angry when my feelings are hurt. I was tired of pretending I don’t.

Didn’t you find the transition tough though? I dont think I quite mastered the skill of being angry yet. There’s this risidual anger and it’s like I can’t find a proper place to put it or something. It’s weird…. But then again, that’s life for ya…
