My way of coping with a breakup and getting over it, is finding a reason to hate them and moving on. Once I do that, then down the road I’m okay with being friends. That’s just me. But I understand what you mean.
Thank you. It’s a struggle because it’s natural for me to want to help, but it’s out of my control. Moving on is easy when someone has done you wrong. But how do I hate someone who doesn’t mean to do the things that he does? Do I hate the person who refuses to help himself instead? It’s as if he...
My jaw has been tight for a few days now and I can’t seem to relax it.
@Freida I know, it’s like I go through a break up every time he isolates and it is unhealthy. I thought maybe I didn’t cry because I’m used to it. And partially because I’m angry.
He is not ready. He’s been persistent that he was not diagnosed, even though I know it was Fall 2015. He denied seeking help, then he had a breakdown in July 2016 which he really hit rock bottom and finally opened up about how he was feeling. He told me he was struggling, that he thought of...
Meaning, we’ve broken up 3 other times and gotten back together. If I move out, there is not going to be another chance. I can’t hold this relationship up on my own.
His emotions are still high. I had texted him laying down the fact that if I move out, I am not ever coming back again. This is the 4th separation in 4 years. I encouraged trying a counselor and committing to it and told him I cared and I’m not his enemy. He told me if I through PTSD in his face...
I don’t even know what to say... I’m sorry to hear everyone’s responses, but I’m glad you all took that leap of faith. The only time he sought treatment was when he was at his lowest point and he gave up the counciling shortly after. He asked me to move out, and I told him if I move out, I can’t...
Thank you. I haven’t cried yet and it hasn’t really sunk in. Or I’m just used to this and over it, and now I deserve better. I am giving myself a few weeks before I start moving my things out.
I’m just thinking as my relationship just crumbled for the 4th time.
My vet was diagnosed a few years ago with PTSD. His first breakdown he finally wanted to seek help, he went to counciling while we were broken up, but it didn’t last very long. I think he only went to a few sessions during...
He’s ended the relationship. I didn’t argue it, I just can’t do this anymore if he’s not willing to work through anything and get help like I am. Thank you everyone for the thoughts and support, it means a lot.
Yes I kept the text generic and just said “I’m coming home, just giving you a quick heads up”, he left to avoid me. Late morning today He reached out for the first time and said “If you’re okay with it, I’d like to talk to you after work tomorrow.” And I don’t know how to feel because he’s NEVER...
Thanks for the responses... I headed to the house (I need to add, he is the home owner and I moved in late last year, it’s my home but legally it is his.) I sent him a quick text to let him know I was coming home and was giving him a heads up.. I saw him pass me on the backroads. Our friend was...
Yes, so I should reach out Monday after my test? I just noticed he re-activated his Facebook but unfriended me. He did it last week to sell something on the site, and then had a post saying he was “signing off” meaning he deactivated it again. Is it possible he reactivated it to see what I was...
Okay, so here’s the complicated part. He does not recognize that his PTSD has flared up (or maybe he does?) His overwhelming feelings right now, he has placed blame on our relationship as being the issue. I admit we have normal relationship issues that need to be worked out, but nothing worth...
