Breakups & Divorce Support Group
Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are. They say that time heals all wounds, but sometimes a listening ear or a hug can work wonders for the heart. Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
Here is the e-mail I sent to my friend -- you know, the one that kind of dumped me after the breakup. What do you think? I hope I'm not setting myself up for another rejection.
Hi Julie.
I've been thinking about you a lot over the last few months, and realize how much our friendship meant to me. I think that's why I got so upset. I felt that by not calling or sending me an e-mail, that you were rejecting me. At that time, it was too much for me -- I already had been rejected by Ann, and I felt that two of the most important people in my life were BOTH rejecting me.
I don't know how you feel about me at this point ... or even how you felt about me BEFORE. But I just wanted to reach out, and see if you want to talk. I'll leave it up to you, I guess.
But like you said before, we have shared a lot, and at least to me, it was meaningful. I don't know what else to say. I hope you respond, and we can talk it all out.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
You know if she doesn't answer then she never really was a good friend anyway Cin.
Are you attracted to her? Could she be wondering that you might be coming on to her? Seriously, I know you mentioned friendship, but when I read it, it sounds a little more than friendship. Maybe it's because I'm a straight guy :) But I think you should have stated something along the lines of friendship only. Just my opinion. BTW, we really do have a great team. LOL
I think it was a nice letter. I have some very close girlfriends and understand how you feel. BCW3 (Shame on you)(: woman just have more intimate and closer relationships then most men. I hope she does respond and I know that it will hurt if she doesn't. But you are a nice person and it really would be her lose. Let me know how it goes. ((HUGS))
