Women who Love too Much Community Group
WHEN BEING IN LOVE, MEANS BEING IN PAIN... This group is to help women through the journey of realizing they can love themselves. To help realize that they are capable of having a happy, healthy, whole relationship and break the cycle of abuse and heartache from loving emotionally unavailable men.
I am anticipating seeing affair man this weekend. Not by choice. It will be in meeting for one hour! I am sooo nervous already. I see myself sitting there shaking with nerves so much that I won't be able to hear the speaker. Its getting me all worked up. I don't want to feel like this and it is making the obsession come back. What can I do to prepare myself? It will have been 5 weeks of NC. I am taking a good friend of mine who knows the situation and is very supportive so that will be good. I'm not even sure if he will show up, but I'm scared he will. I don't want to act like a fool. Please help.
Shani, is this something that you HAVE to go to? Could you just not go or call in sick? I would consider not going if you think it's going to be a set back for you. If you have to go and run into him, I wouldn't talk to him because when we are nervous we tend to ramble and sound stupid, at least I do. If you can't avoid it, keep it short and sweet, practice deep breathing, don't stare in his direction. If he's that much of a distraction, you probably won't learn much at the meeting anyway....
