Lit heartbreak, thank you, I’m not going to say anymore as many know and he’s never going to give me the answers to let me move on and recover, I’ve begged.

I have felt that in real life. There is something perverse about a person who denies you closure. I truly feel for you.

Unfortunately, there aren't always answers. Sometimes you just have to give yourself your own closure and allow yourself the grieve. There are no time limits.

I hate to say it, but he did give you the answers you need for closure in his silence. Not the answers you were hoping for, but sometimes silence is a better answer than words to placate you. Time to move on and move forward. Life isn't over, just taking a detour to a new road to go on.

He has never been silent, until I forced silence. Thank you and I hear you, right now I feel like the pain is never going to stop

Remember, the only one who can hurt you emotionally is yourself. Be stronger than the pain and don't let it control you.
 
It’s a month today and I’m falling apart like never before, I don’t feel like I will

I’m almost at the 2 year mark and I’m still not over it because I feel like there are still loose ends even though we’ve both moved on and are married to other people. Some days I’m great and other days I miss him so much it hurts.

:rose: ty I’ve seen your posts and so I know you totally understand. Today a truck hit me head on filled with all the love and emotion I know we shared for so long. I have never been where I am now, it scares me, it’s leaving me feeling like I can’t deal with this pain and not being told why anymore. I don’t know what I’m going to do to help myself anymore and I’m not even sure I can.

But ty :rose:

That’s not true. Many people are emotionally abused by others.
You don’t deserve it, DD. I hope you can move on.
 
Thinking about attending a party at a woman’s house a year after we’d last slept together, and how, if anyone flipped over the sofa cushion I was sitting on, they’d see the stain of our mixed juices from a long time ago. I’ve left too much DNA laying around to ever commit a serious crime.
 
Heartbreak sucks, especially the kind that we experience here on Lit, one step removed from the physical relationships that we wish we had.

It can be tough to think of them, to see them even if they are ignore(thanks quote feature!) Like we might see an ex slat the grocery store or local bar.

But time does heal wounds.
I will stop short of trottng out the tired old trope of scars,physical and emotional. But things do improve with time. I'm reminded of an episode of an old TV show called "SOAP". A man has just taken pills to end his life and the man in the hospital bed next to him says "just you wait some day this will be behind you and you'll hear someone laughing. And that person will be you"
 
The upside of having a clutter corner of shame is that sometimes when you go through it you find a little treasure, like a $15.00 Trader Joe’s gift card. :)
 
I should persue a career in therapy. The amount of other people's emotional problems I deal with a day should make me more standoffish, I find myself instead becoming more involved in the dramatics.

Har! I was digging around in an old trunk recently, and found a black negligee that a woman had left behind and that I suddenly had a memory of. Better in memory than in the circumstances of the event, as I recall it, but we remember what we want to.

This is true. And I agree with the later sentence as well. Everyone is wired differently and some people have seriously compromised emotional coping skillsets which make things more difficult for them.
