If anything might give me final closure... 1 day ago

....this just might be it. However it is for some reason still hurting…. but I might finally be getting in touch with my anger too.

I sent out a big group text message yesterday just saying “Merry Christmas and I hope your day is filed with Love and laughter. Enjoy it! I sent it to all my friends and all sorts of people… including D’s brother and 2 sisters and Mum but I also sent it to D. His mum replied and said she was praying for us etc, as did N his sister who is my friend… but NOTHING from him. SO either they are hiding what is going on with me and my family from D OR he is a heartless git.

I know we have a past, he doesnt want me…. blah blah blah… but I would have thought he would have risen about it and at least sent me some kind of message.

I know you’re all going to say No dont do it… but he has one final chance. I am working on individual emails to send to people for new years which will spell out Christophers condition for those who dont know. If I get ZERO from D it might continue to break my heart… but he can go F himself



Something... 3 weeks ago

My therapist said the other night in our session has really been going round in my head…

I am not able to let go of D, Its almost like I wont let myself. I dont want to let go of the pain. My therapist said to me, you do know just becasue you are getting on and caring for yourslef doesnt mean you dont still love D or care about him…

Hearing that initially didnt feel comfortable with me, and thats such a typical me reaction… Black and white / all or nothing. I am either miserable and crying for him so I still love him, or I’m happy and over it and dont. Do I have to be crying and suffering to show him I love him? No right? Thats not love. Love isn’t like that. But it reminds me of when my step dad passed away and it devestated me for a long while, but then life took it’s natural course and in time I started feeling better. I felt like I was ‘over him’ and if I was ‘over him” it meant I didn’t care or miss him or wish he was still alive. But I guess you cant live in that stage of grief forever? I think I’m feeling the same ( or at least beginning to) about D

Do you think it’s possible to be happy and be the best I can be without being over him? Without not having hope that one day the Gods / Universe / Life / Whatever will have our paths cross and souls reunite?

I’m like a dual personality.. on one side there is a part of me who truely belives I can be happy, successful, loved and positive and blah blah blah and get over D and the other side who doubts every inch of myself and my being and nurses a broken heart and is paralysed with aching desire whilst her life stops and wait for him. This side feels for some reason she doesnt want to be happy… how f*ed up is that?!

Anyway it was just a thought.. it is one I”m going to keep saying to myself…

Just becasue I’m happy and caring for myself doesnt mean I dont still love him and want him in my life. Just like just because I randomly slept with another man doesnt mean I dont love D still and would drop everything to be with him….
BUT I cant keep putting things on hold for something which, urgh i hate to say it, may never happen. We may never speak again or be with each other again…

Never is a very long time… :-(



Bloody Facebook.... 4 weeks ago

I just need to get this out…. It’s 1.15am and I’m all alone except for a 43T page and I need to let this out.

I haven’t done it for months, actually I deleted his brother and sisters from my FB account so his friggin picture wouldn’t keep popping up to stare back at me. When we first broke up I deleted him from my ‘friends’ and about a week later I went to look him up… I guess so I could see his face as by then everything I had of him was removed from my sight… and he’d changed his profile picture…

(I would like to point out that i am FULLY aware of how pathetic and childish all of this may seem but the pain it caused / causes is more than real)

...He changed his picture from one that I took of him a weekend we went away to some picture of a suitcase he had on there before we started dating….. I felt sick, the kind of sick that causes a hot prickly flush of sick faint flush feeling to speed across your chest and down your arms and up your neck…..

So I stopped looking him up…. to me the picture change set off a panic attack and made me think he hated me and was trying to erase me….

So over the last months I have gradually deleted his family as it is too tempting to me to look D up and stalk him…. but I kept his friend P on there. His friend P was a guy who was into photography, who I met the same night D’s sister and I went for a drink and met D out for his 30th Birthday. P moved to London and came to work with me for a couple of jobs before D and I ever were anything. D was with someone else.

Anyway, I just went on P’s page on FB, nosy, stupid, not sure…maybe because I know I’m going to see him in NY in a couple of weeks… so I went on his page and then looked through his wall posts to see if there was anything there from D… nothing since the end of August which indicated D was going to visit P in NY later that week…. (I digress – sorry) when I didn’t see anything from D I for some reason looked at all P’s friends just so I could see D’s name… and there it was and he’d changed his picture!!! Back to the one I took of him the very fist night we met… and IT HIT ME AGAIN

that HOT FLUSH SICK PRICKLY OH MY GOD I CANT STOP MY TEARS FEELING…. I’m 34 FFS… why am I getting upset over a picture….

Of course my brain went zooming…

Maybe he’s feeling better and back on FB flirting and having fun – he’s really over me

Maybe he’s dating someone again and is happy, hence has a smiley happy picture of himself up there

Does he even ever think of me?
Did he click that was the picture I took the first night we met?
Do thoughts of me torment him like the ones of him do me?

The torture of not speaking to him drives me crazy. I know I sent him the email and told him how I feel but I got close to nothing back, there was no conversation, no chance to have my questions answered, no chance to be told how he felt / feels about me… and it’s driving me crazy still. It’s almost 9 months and I still cry most days…

I don’t understand how you can love someone one day and then put the phone down saying it’s not going to work and literally never speak to them again…. Nothing, not even a chance for a discussion or some closure… NOTHING!! I CEASE TO EXIST

The same thing happened with my dad 5 years ago… went from loving me and being kind and wonderful to cutting me out of his life….

All rationality and years of therapy shouts in my mind and says it’s THEIR issue, but the emotion and pain says it’s me… there’s something about me that makes people love me one minute… and then leave. Not just leave and “let’s be friends”… but LEAVE… and cut me out like I never existed.

I don’t know what the point is…. I don’t understand… Why would I be made with so much love and stuff to give someone… wanting so much to give someone and have no-one come my way for 10 years… then D comes and I let him in… and he leaves…. Loves me and leaves…. tells me when he does, that it’s not me, it’s him, he’s mad about me but he has to be true to himself and sort himself out…

Why would God make me with so much to give and no-ONE to give it to…

I know it sounds selfish and I make alot of people happy with what I do and give to alot of people, and there are lots of people who think I’m great and love me blah blah blah… but that seems like nothing as I don’t have that one person… I dont have that one person who is mine, who loves me like D used to. Why give him to me and then take him away…. He was my first ‘ONE’, I waited, I hurt for years, I wasn’t looking and he came into my life and I felt like I’d won the lottery….

He was cute and funny and loved life and cheeky and sexy and passionate about so many things, we were comfortable in each others presence from day one… we felt natural… we were meant to be… Please God we were meant to be…….

I’d prayed for so long to have someone like him.. and he exceeded my prayers and then… he leaves…. Why the F* would God or whomever do that… why bring him into my life and let me love and be loved and take him away….?

The pain is so raw right now… I just don’t get it…



Today... 1 month ago

...I miss him… :-(



Why... 2 months ago

... do i think that sleeping with someone else who is purely a f*buddy from my past will help in getting over him. It certianly doesn’t make me feel better, i should know as I tried 2 weeks ago…. but I’m thinking about it again. it’s like I really dont give a shit, if I cant have the love and affection of D then I can just be anybody’s as I just vacate my body and feel hollow…
It’s my own fault if I feel crap after this, i mean if i go through with it, but i am thinking of doing it non the less



Untitled 3 months ago

Am I ever going to accomplish this goal????

It really isnt getting any easier. I saw my therapist today and she told me to just pour it all out in a letter/email not worrying about what I say just say it all and then we can edit it from there…
My voice feels like a lump in my throat and i have a knot in my stomach and I’m scared into paralysis and inaction AGAIN

I cant let go of the dream that we were meant to be together. I wish I could, I’m trying, I swear I”m trying but it’s just not happening.



TODAY..... 3 months ago

is not a great day!!!
Im exhausted after 2 long weeks…. I cant seem to write this ‘good bye / this is how i feel email’ without worrying what effect every word will / wont have on D

Im a good person…. why can’t i have what I want….???? And Cessie…... YES I know Garth Brooks and Unanswered prayers!!!!!

BUT I’m still stomping my feet and grunting/ screaming URGH like a petulant child who is not getting what she wants!

URGHHHHHHHH!!!



PAINFUL STEPS 3 months ago

I got a response from my email I sent D last night. I didnt expect one so soon.
It was cold, negative and cut me up again.
I am praying it is shock and tomorrow I will wake up feeling some form of closure… or at least a step closer to there.

BUt for now I feel like shit!!



This is a tedious goal! 5 months ago
