Not anymore. Been there. Went through it. I read a lot about break ups, ways to cope, multiple personalities of people, types of relationships, forms of bonds people make.

In the end it was about accepting the illusion I had for what she never was. The memories became tainted. The smiles we shared faded away. The latest man she was spreading her legs for bothered less.

Slowly I found myself again. Regained who I was and what I related to before meeting her.

The struggle to deal with the pain of longing for someone you once loved with your heart despite knowing they just used you, never loved you…

It’s real brother. It’s painful but it’s also for us men to feel and absorb. Our hardwiring doesn’t allow us to short-circuit emotions by distracting ourselves with petty s~~~ in life. Taking ownership of these emotions was my first step to gaining control over them.

Whatever you enjoy doing, do it now. There is no better time. Don’t wait to feel better before doing it. Even if it’s as simple as going for a short walk, re-watching something you found funny, calling a family member or friend. Anything. But NEVER consider her as the solution to the pain. She is the cause. Don’t call/text her. Resist.

What in the hell do you do to make it thru?

Get a motorcycle. If you already have a motorcycle, get another motorcycle.

Yes, I know that’s my answer to everything, but it’s a damn good one.

But seriously, my point is find something else to occupy your time. Whatever you do, don’t wallow in regret because you have nothing real to regret. Find something you really REALLY enjoy doing that you couldn’t have done while she was still around. Soon enough you will remember all the s~~~ she put you through, how much better whatever you are doing now is than when you were with her, and how happy you are without her in your life.

Don’t call/text her. Resist.

That has been on my gd damned mind all day! I know, I have went off my path today.

Self medicating, picked up a bottle of percocet. Taken 10 in 7 hours. I just want the god damned pain to go away!

I have written letters I burned. Emails I never sent. All I can do is validate your pain. Don’t rely on alcohol or substance. The pain won’t last you a lifetime. Addiction to that s~~~ will. She isn’t worth it my man.

The likes of Aaron Clarey calling anyone that don’t fit his idea of “man” VirginTOWS or whatever other derogatory term doesn’t help.

I will not pretend I know how you feel, because we are different people with different experiences. But maybe knowing that you are not the only one that feel loneliness  might give you some help.

Try to get some hobbies and work on something you like, go for a walk, don’t spend too much time thinking on what should or could be. Think on what it is and what it CAN be.

Take care.

Cheers.

I know each of us here has felt severe pain and loneliness, thank you my brothers.
