A Strange Day

 Today was a strange day. I have been feeling uneasy today and I think the reason why is that I have not listened to my inner voice as I know I should. My fiance and I recently broke off an engagement, which I thought I was ok about the situation.  I've been walking around proving that I am a strong woman and that I can pick up where I left off, no problem right?  I know that we are not right for one another, and I dont want to marry him or be in a romantic relationship with him.  But I think that I am bothered because he doesn't seem bothered. I know this sounds crazy, and selfish, but I guess I need to give my feelings a voice no matter how crazy and selfish it sounds. I am going to focus on the gift that is being given to me from this situation.  Based on my tools lessons and what I already know (inner voice), I realize that this is an oppurtunity for me to nurture my relationship with myself, and I am going to do just that.

I'm proud of you!

Good for you. You have a wonderful attitude and please know that what you are feeling is completely normal.

 

I'm so proud of you because you want to find yourself. Have a love affair with yourself. I know that sounds weird, but really get to know you and you will attract the right person for you.

 

We are here for you! 

People fake it

Although I don't know this guy I do know a lot of guys "fake it" when they lose their partner. They might step up their dress, visibly date someone else, laugh a lot, appear on the outside like "Hey I am over it." So...I don't think we can tell what someone is feeling (or not) looking at the outside.

But then there's the matter of why I might be so immersed in thinking about what he's thinking about (or not). Is my value of myself all tied up in what he does (or doesn't) do? Is my pride hurt because he's not showing any suffering? Maybe I'm worried he never really loved and valued me, if he can just walk off and be just fine? Whatever it is, I can't get the answer from him, anymore. I like the idea of bringing the focus back to my life and future. What can I do to comfort and nourish myself through this? I mean, I was going to MARRY the guy. It's something. It's important, that a relationship at that level broke off. Even though it's the best and right thing, it is still hard. So...if it were me I'd do some nice baths, outtings with girlfriends, a few good crying jags, a facial or get my nails done, something happy  for exercise, and then leap back into life. I'm sorry you've had this loss. It's just not fun.
