I am still alive but I am barely breathing, I cannot see the day light sometimes.. From what happened to me,from the trauma that I experienced, From the pain, anger and hurts.. Here I am, just like a shadow that cannot see any rainbows at all.. How many times I told myself that he is not really coming back, he just left and treat me badly.. Asking myself all the time what have I done? I am just as faithful as I can be, like a puppy that is faithful and loyal to her master.. But yet I got hurt, betrayed, cheated and most of all the broken lies and promises that he made.. Sometimes at the end of the day, I just see myself look in the mirror and ask what is wrong with me, ask God Why me? What have I done to you and to him? I feel incomplete.. I don't even know if I could love again.. I do many things just to help myself and move on.. but at the end of the day, I always hear silence, its the tears that flows into my eyes, the memories that always come back, I am still stuck in the shadow of yesterday.. and living this half life.. he ended my life.. I am looking forward to make a new journey, I forgive him.. but I just can't forget and until now.. it haunts me.I cannot fool myself, maybe i will just chose to love him in silence and dreams because in those no ones owns him but.. in dreams. Please do pray for me..

Three years ago a guy cheated on me upfront. In the sense that he'd talk to his ex-girlfriend on the phone in front of me laughing and having a really good conversation. So I decided to go away and move on.
I went home to Mindanao(I know you're from the Phils) and left him in Manila. I thought It'd be easier that way, but I almost went insane. Every little thing I do reminds of him, maybe because we spent the whole relationship living together.
For one and a half year I spent days crying and nights getting drunk. And then I realized it's not helping at all. Then I decided to make my life and myself better. Do more meaningful things.. I was right. One day I woke feeling great and renewed. I never blamed God, because I know during the relationship I also had mistakes. Or maybe it was a pay back for my mistakes before.
Acceptance is the key my friend. You can do it. I wish you well. :)

I am happier than ever sis. That happened years ago and I am actually friends with the guy. He even came up to me two nights ago telling me he thinks his girlfriend is cheating on him. I would've placed a grin on my face if that happened long time ago but I was sorry for him as I know how it hurts. Life is indeed an Irony. The most important thing is you don't stop moving, because the world will continue to revolve, with or without you. This too shall pass. Someone out there is on his way to you. I hope you'll be fine soon. :)

I know it's not easy. I felt like this when my ex did the same thing to me. I cried every night and I neglected myself. I thought I would never be happy again and will never be able to find love again. Well today, none of that is true. Now that I'm fully detatched from him, I feel like new again. I am happy with my life. So now that I'm used to be single I just realize how a jerk he was to me. AND...I'm in love again with someone else! :) Don't give up and especially you have to be strong. You are just going to poison your life away if you keep living like this. There is a reason why all of this is happening. You wil be happy again i believe in it.

i have been there and i'm fighting myself not to go back there. i recently joined a class at the church i'm attending. we're studying the book of Proverbs. i'm finding it to help me a lot. if you have a Bible or can get one, read Proverbs at your own pace. i'll keep you in my prayers that God will bless you with piece of mind and contentment in your heart.

Oh my God my friend this is again another heartbreaking post. Like I always tell you my friend, just keep the faith. Let the creator lead the way. It is normal to feel the pain but don't let it ruin you okay? Someday you will find someone who is so much better, maybe not that handsome but much better person than your ex. Let go baby, just let it go. I know this may sound cheesy but did you watch like telenovelas where they burn the other half's belongings? Why don't you do that? Perhaps it can help ease the pain. Take care my dear. God bless you.

Oh, it squeezes my heart reading this. Yes, you are right God is a big factor in making you believe and trust in yourself. After being hurt it is only normal that you have lower your self-esteem, that you think you are a looser, that you are a fool, that you don't deserve to be happy. But you are wrong! I mean give up the grieving! Give up the denial! Go out, see the sunshine, talk to people who makes you feel better, do things that help you gain self-esteem. Remember it is his lost and not yours, someone at the right time will come for you don't give up no matter how many times you stumble and fall. You are not the only one who had gone through this and guess what they who fought has found what and who they deserve; so be one of those who learned and moved on. Be happy! Believe in yourself! Pray to God for guidance and most of all LOVE YOURSELF.

Dear nicegolddy,
Its hard to ask you let go of the past when it haunts you with this memories, all I want you to do is pray to God so that he will take away your sorrows.

hi nice,
It takes time to forget and heal all the pain that he caused in you
Just tell to yourself you deserve some better than him.
There are billions of people around the world it's our choice to be alone or to hold on to the past and let the pain rule our life.
hope you will recover soon and forget him
welcome to mylot
keep posting

Please be strong although you feel like you are only half alive. Cry as much as you want, let the tears flow and don't keep it to yourself. You are wise to be sharing your pain here in mylot. I sympathize you but you know I can't do much except to listen to all of your sufferings and pray for you. The pain that you are going through now will gradually subside so try to be strong and persevere in your hardship. Take care and stay strong nicegolddy.
