Question - (21 April 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 21 April 2009)
A female Ireland, anonymous writes:

Myself and partner broke up about 3 weeks ago. He moved out of my house. I was pretty upset the first week. We had been doing a fair bit of arguing during the lead up to the break up.

This is his third week being gone and I haven't seen him around. I was a bit upset at the weekend and the mornings seemed to be pretty hard but now it seems to be getting easier. Is this a normal feeling or is there worse to come? I cry every so often but I have been keeping a diary of my feelings and the devastation seems to be passing. We were together for 4 years.

My question is, is this normal or am I avoiding this whole thing. I feel strange!!!

Some advice would be great

Don't worry about whether it's normal or not. If you feel better as time goes on, surely that's good news! Sounds like you might be relieved to be away from him.

Love4Life agony auntSometimes we get with a person and we have a physical connection but then realize we are to different. It starts with a disagreement and then leads to slug fest 2000 with our mouths.

when its over we feel sad cause we lost that connection but then we feel better cause we never had the emotional connection we thought we had. It's actually a common thing. It still hurts but we heal over time. You may have days you will still break down and cry but ask yourself is this for the better. If you were fighting all the time that wasn't healthy mentally or physically.

By ending it you have given your body the mental break it needed and their fore are now feeling better and seeing life better again.

You may one day even be friends just keep in mind just friends you have already been down that road don't backtrack always move froward.

eyeswideopen agony auntI think you are doing great. The diary idea is a good one, it helps to write down how you are feeling, puts things in perspective. Recovery just takes time, and you are already seeing how it slowly gets easier. Expect some bad days but also know there will be wonderful days ahead as well. Keep your chin up! Keep us posted.

yes it is completely normal for you to feel this way you will soon move on and so will he some times break-ups take a while to get over and long before you get back out there in the game but if u still have true feelings for him and you know that all hes going to do is break your heart then there is no point getting back together
