Hello All,
I am new here and am hopeing for some suppport or maybe just someone to talk to who knows what it feels like to want to smile again. Here is my dellema....my boyfriend and I lived together for almost 3 years and split up 2 months ago. I moved out and got my own place; the next day we decided we wanted to work on the relationship we have together. So now we are together but living in seperate places. From this we hope to gain back the butterflies we once had for each other and the appreication neither of us have for each other. I should be happy that we are still together and trying to work on things, but I'm not. It's a struggle to fall asleep without him in fear of waking up without him beside me. My days are long since I know I wont be coming home to him. Since the split happened I am no longer social, I shelter myself inside, I've been crying a lot, I lost the energy to do things, I've lost all my motivation, it's hard to eat because I constantly feel sick to my stomach, I can't sleep, my muscles hurt, my body aches, and I can't seem to find my real smile. I don't know what to do to feel happy anymore. My tears are uncontrolable and my smile is fake. Posted on 11/06/09, 07:11 pm |

I am so sorry for your pain. Alot of us have relationship issues and it hurts so bad. I have screwed up and the one I love is gone. So I say this if you can call or write or see your love - do it now.

I don't know if you will ever get the "butteflies" back again but if you are still together than why so sad?? I mean I think what you did was a good idea. That way if you cannot work things out then you will be one step ahead. I know it hurts to be in love especailly when you think that love is gone.
I don't know why your smile is fake. Do you still love him or do you want it to end. I mean I know you said it is hard to fall asleep without him. I understand that it is hard when you have had someone there for 3 years but are you missing him or just missing him because you don't wan to be alone?? There is a difference. I hope that everyhting works out for you. I wish you much luck and I forgot to say Welcome to D. S. And once again I am glad to see that you guys realized that you were losing respect for each other and did this instead of continuing to let the realtionship become toxic. Smile honey your doing the right thing:)

No doubt you feel the way you're feeling is because YOU ARE IN LOVE. However you didn't say why you broke up in the first place. Was he abusive, did he cheat? If he did, then he isn't about to stop and you're better off without him.
If he hasn't done anything like this than ask yourself, "Does he REALLY love me?" or is he using me for something else? Don't move back in with him just yet. Wait and see if things gets better and you can work it out with trust. Until then get a teddy bear.

I'm sorry you are hurting, *hug*. These things take time to heal, but someday soon you will get back to feeling better, no matter how this works out.
