Writing Down Your Feelings

So I found one of the best ways to not let thoughts of my ex-boyfriend bring my day down, is by writing down what I would tell him at that moment.  I’ve been writing him letters that I will never send in order to express my feelings about us and the break up.  Ignoring the thoughts and burying them really doesn’t work for me because the thoughts will try to creep back into my head. I figured if I just let them out in writing, it will be easier to let go.  

The first time I decided to write, it became a 8 page letter, because at the time, we weren't speaking to each other and I got used to telling him everything. Therefore there were many things I wanted to say and well I have a tendency to blab, lol.  Also, I do have an extrovert personality, so letting my emotions out is the only way I can feel better.

#1 and #5, buy yourself flowers and go to the movies alone! 

I took myself on a day date and saw Suicide Squad.  Completely loved the movie!!

I realized that I’ve always enjoyed doing things on my own, but going to the movies or taking yourself out for dinner is usually frown upon by society so I never do it.  It was truly freeing when I went out because I could do whatever I want.  I watched the movie I wanted to see and sat where I wanted to sit.  I was really happy on my way home and realized with or without a boyfriend, it’s okay to go out to see a movie on your own.  You can watch the things you want to watch without waiting on the other person.
