Hmmmm 1 week ago

When will I be fine with how my past is/was? Will I ever get over the hurt and pain of it all?

Happy Hour re-cap 1 week ago

He was there and my heart fell… but I think seeing him will help me let go. Time to move on

Happy Hour 1 week ago

Going to happy hour with friends and old co-workers, he might be there. I want him to be, yet at the same time I hope he’s not.

I think of him every day, so I have not let it all go. When will I?

What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now.

I have had one particularly bad relationship which I am finding it extremely difficult to completely let go of. No matter how this guy talks to me I seem to always go back to him and want ‘to be friends’, of course always hoping for more. He says he wants my frienship but then gives me monosyllabic responses to questions and never asks me about my life, what im thinking or how i feel about anything. I think its a joke. I have to move on from him but letting go for some bizarre reason is proving harder than I anticipated. I have that little devil on my shoulder whispering to me ‘what if’. I do not want anymore what ifs. I know he does not have feelings for me, and in reality I do not like him. I keep blaming myself for pushing him away when in reality he never cared much in the first place. I need to stop blaming myself, stop dwelling on the what ifs and start focusing on the positive things in my life.

how you feel 4 weeks ago

“It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is the most painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel.”

it hurts 4 weeks ago

the past was once a fond memory and it also hurts more painfully than being stabbed. i want to let go and move on to new adventures and make a new me and share my experiences with new people.

Pain 4 weeks ago

I have let go of the past for the most part. But I can’t seem to get over all of it and those parts cause the most pain.
