Be happy with or without your ex
I've been there so I truly understand how abandoned you feel; how devastating the future now seems, and how hard it is to get through each day, to eat or sleep. You have to stop allowing your thoughts to be your own worst enemy and use them productively. Stop trolling the internet for answers, and stop driving your friends and family crazy talking about your breakup. Start talking to me!
I will give you the strength you need, even offer on-call support, to help you cope, heal, and move forward as the best version of yourself — with or without your ex.

Grieving Your Broken Relationship
Change is a process. Everyone handles grief at their own pace. But you cannot heal until you accept that it is over, at least for now. Your relationship as you knew it has died. For many people the feeling of rejection, knowing their ex could be with them but just doesn't want to be, is actually harder than if they had died, especially if they're choosing to be with someone else. That's exactly why you need to decide you do not want your ex back. If you don't want someone, you can't feel rejected.
Stop wasting loving energy on your ex and focus your attention on taking great care of you. Nothing changes if nothing changes. Use this painful time to self-evaluate and decide you want better for yourself. I will help you recognize exactly what you need to change and what would be best for you now. If that does turn out to be your ex we'll make sure you fix what had broken.
