Everyone gets over things in their own time. I think it’s worse because this guy was such a dick with the cheating.

You didn’t deserve that, any of it. I hope you get past it soon because he doesn’t deserve to have anymore space in your head.

@iamonfire696 yeah I think it's mostly cause it makes me feel not good enough. Even though I know I was really good to him

@caccoon I understand that but he’s the one who isn’t good enough in this equation. He’s a shit person and will do it again. You just happened to be a casualty of his and I am sorry for that.

@iamonfire696 Thank you, and it's okay... I am feeling slowly better about it. At least I am not so angry anymore, now just kinda lonely and sad and undesirable

@caccoon you are beautiful and very desirable but I understand what it’s like to feel this way because of a man. I wish there was something I could say or do that would make you have no doubts about yourself.

@iamonfire696 Thank you for being so sweet. <3 It'll be okay, I can build myself back up again. I am trying to purge my apartment of things I don't need which is a nice feeling

@caccoon yes you will and you will forget about him with time.

That’s a nice feeling to get rid of stuff.

@iamonfire696 I will, I am excited for when thinking of him doesn't make me feel sadness pangs. When I can just recognize that he wasn't really very good to me (or for me) at all

@caccoon I am excited for you to feel that way too 💞
