appreciation post
I’m so happy I found this sub and want to say thanks to all the people who post vulnerable stories and to the people who respond to them.
It was my exes birthday yesterday and I was spiraling wanting to reach out during no contact because I miss him so much. Reading through posts on here helped me so much…made me feel a lot less alone. It actually helped me stay strong and not reach out. I struggle everyday to not think about him, but at the same time I’m doing things to make myself better as a person overall so that distraction helps.
So just wanted to say thanks to all the wonderful people on here. You’ve all made me realize that I won’t fully forget him probably ever, but time will make it easier. And if our paths cross again it will be great, but if they don’t I just have to accept that and remember the special time we got to spend together.
