Holidays

Author

Any one having a really hard time with not being with your ex knowing tomorrow is Thanksgiving Christmas and News years will be right around the corner. I got so close to breaking no contact today. And if I am being honest everything in me wants him to reach out tomorrow even if it’s to say happy Thanksgiving ughhh this sucks. we have been broke up since beginning of October but I have not reached out in about a week and it’s killing me

do you think hearing from him tomorrow would actually make you feel better long term, or is it more about the moment and the loneliness hitting right now?

Remeber to stay strong. Yes, the holidays are around the corner and the love that’s still inside you urges to be poured out somewhere. Let that somewhere be with the people who pour into you the most. You got this, I believe in you!

what usually helps me on days like this is planning something small that pulls me out of that waiting mode. even something dumb like watching a movie i love or going for a walk. just anything that reminds me the day isn’t only about them.

i was freshly broken up right before the holidays too, and the silence on those “big days” hit way harder than i expected. i remember wanting just one tiny message from him, like some proof i still mattered. it’s brutal, you’re not crazy for feeling it

Yes! We've been broken up since may and I don't feel much better than I did back then. I'm dreading the holidays and don't even want to celebrate. I will be with my family, suffering in silence.
