sleepover! my first boyfriend dumbed me last month and it still hurts me a lot because he was my best friend and now he thinks i'm a crazy bitch. he's a part of my friend group and in my classes and i don't know how to feel good about myself without him & it sucks and i go to therapy now :/ i have a hard time believing in love or that i will find someone else bc that first relationship was so. awful. & my friends think i'm overreacting when i explain the bad things and how betrayed i feel :(
first of all, glad you’re going to therapy! you probably get this a lot, but there are PLENTY of fish in the sea. Reflect on what went wrong in the relationship, and see if you can improve yourself in order to prevent whatever might’ve happened in your last relationship, even if it wasn’t necessarily your fault. Your ex dumped you and the best way to come out of it is showing how much better you can be without him, or with a different significant other. And don’t even WORRY about nobody sparking your interest as they come and go because I mean there’s just no way. It might take some time but patience is a virtue and I am SO SURE that somebody else is gonna come whisk you off your feet. Trust me, I’ve been bored out of my mind for the last few years because I never had a really good crush that I could obsess over and now there’s this guy (though that’s not what you came to ask me about lol) and even if it might not become a relationship, it sure is fun to stare at him!! So all in all, don’t worry, you good, and keep going to therapy!
