Know what's super fun? Having a breakdown while clearing out your ex fiancé's shit
Knew this would probably happen and im lucky that my new partner is so supportive and understanding but holy shit im sobbing at my favorite hangout spot trying to play Mario and cool down. Texting a few friends.
Im sure I'll bounce back and enjoy the rest of my night and eat and watch one piece im just super teary eyed rn
when my ex was here she lost one of her soft toys, a plush cat in the colours of the transgender pride flag, and I only found it after she was gone. I reached out to offer to give it back but I didn't get a response. so it's just been in my room for months. it's adorable and well-loved but it just reminds me of the bitterness of her.
today I gave it away to the queer support centre at the university, and they were so happy to have it. I will never see it again. I didn't expect to be so emotional over this that I'd be crying
it always catches me off guard how these seemingly small actions can make me feel really emotional, when I've already planned out what I'm going to do, it feels like the emotions should be already priced-in, so to speak. but it still hurts in unexpected ways
I'm glad that you're moving on
Thanks comrade. Still more to go through, but itll get done, and the tears are out now at least.
Feel really fortunate that i could directly text my ex about it since we're that level of close, and we had a nice little conversation last night.
You've got this. Crying is good for you and you're also awesome
Thanks homie, taking a break for tonight but the rest will be fine. My ex and i are still pretty close, or at least close enough that I talked to them about it and let it out to them directly a bit. We're both proud of each other and getting ourselves into better spots for us.
There is something so relieving about a good cry. It's like physically expelling pent up emotion
Oof yeah I did that a few years ago. It feels a lot better once you’re done. You’ll get through it comrade
Yeah, should have done it a while ago but I was wrapped up in staying soberish and moving on. It'll get done, and it'll get easier, especially since I was able to talk to them directly about it tonight. We're still close enough to where I can do that.
