Sweetheart you sound just like everyone else here. especially me.
I can tell you stories from my life that will make you feel like the success queen. 🙂 Trust me. And I have learned a trick. it's going to sound nuts but here goes:
You get through one day.
Shut everything that you have done yesterday behind you. Shut it. Build a wall. Block it right out. What you have to focus on is getting through one day.
After a series of one days, people will forget everything you have ever done. What you have to do is hang on in there with the one days until the next guy does something stupid.
And then you're free.
🙂
Your ex is always going to be a butthole. Well, both of them. And that's because you settled for guys who didn't love you properly. They treated you like a thing, not a person. But you stood up and you got out. That's really great.
Now you're free. Now you've escaped! That's like dragging yourself out of quicksand! Pat yourself on the back. You've done a fantastic job. And now all you have to worry about is you, and the darling girly, and the cat. That's wonderful.
You have a little while to plan your exit. That's good, because you probably don't have much money. So you have to get through the time till you get your beastie back and then the two of you can jump in a camper and head for the sea, and never look back… except for girly to spend holidays with dad. And she can come to stay with him, and she can come back to you, and the heat can go out of that until in five years time it won't freak you out, and it won't freak him out.
As to this flash in the pan dude, just don't even worry about him. Call him a rebound. he's clearly not got it together. You stood up for your standards, and you've had a lucky escape, and you should be patting yourself on the back for this.
So get through the days till you don't cringe, for me that's usually 3 with the odd flashback for a little while. After 3 days if your boss doesn't sack you, he's not going to. So just hang on in there, today, and today, and then today again, and girly will come home, and you two can plan your exciting future.
That was probably far too long. 😀 😀 😀 You'll be fine.
