I made it through one more tough night

Last night was bad. I cried til I could cry no more. He's texting someone new and it hurts so bad. I cried and screamed and punched pillows like a crazy person and tried to conjure all the bad, all the hurt, all the things he has done to me.

I fought so hard to not text him and it was gut wrenching. I wanted to puke. Sometimes, I become physically Ill from this. But as I sobbed, i prayed and I knew I could do this. I said, "just let me get through this night without calling him and maybe tomorrow I can too". It was hard. My eyes are a puffy mess this morning but I did it. I did not call him. I did not text him. And just that is something to be proud of.

Sorry to hear about your evening. I have had those, too many times. You did absolutely the right thing. Self soothing. Perfect. Now you know you can get through those kinds of evenings and you will be okay. So proud of you.
