I went to my ex-wife's house today to get the rest of my stuff. When she got there she hugged me and I just lost it and started crying. Then we started talking and I word vomited everything I said too much and asked way too many questions trying to make sense of everything. I know this just makes her shut down but I couldn't stop myself. I feel so stupid. My plan was to act like everything was fine grab my things and leave but I just fell apart. I know it was pathetic and probably just pushed her even further away.

you went in with a script but being around her broke it. happened with me too, i thought i was ready then one look and my body reacted before my brain.

i get it. when i saw mine face to face the emotions just rushed out before i could think. it wasn’t stupid, it was just human. i remember feeling embarrassed after but deep down i know i cared too much to be calm.

i told myself i’d play it cool too. walked in saw him and all the shit i rehearsed went out the window. i hated myself after sitting in the car replaying every dumb word. felt weak as hell.

Hopefully in some way it provided you with some relief. Holding it all in and pushing it down isn’t easy or healthy. Don’t beat yourself up, you are Human, it happens 🤗 wishing you the best and the healing ❤️‍🩹 you deserve
