Memories we shared...the last time I saw him...last kiss...everything, for no reason at all and I feel like I'm right back where I was. I miss him too. But.....after the 'flutterbyes' are over, I realize I'm still here...where I need to be and that it's just one more step away from him. That's why it sometimes feels scary.
It's been only a few months for you...please don't be so hard on yourself. You're doing wonderfully, you have to keep telling yourself that, and you deserve someone who loves you, and who won't leave you. All the things you've done thus far to distract and move on ARE working...its just that our minds sometimes are wired to look back...in moments of stress (sometimes we don't even know we're stressed) or just in moments of recognition that it HAS been months.
Hang in there. It does get better, I promise.

Thank you so much. I really thought I was going crazy and turning into one of those who won't let go and who do crazy things.
I'm not alone then.
It's just really darn hard and sometimes I even think it's unfair. 4 years is a long time, but there's not really anything I can do about that. I just want to break free of these feelings...
Thank you so much for your kind words and for letting me know I'm not alone in feeling like this.
It's so wonderful there's a place like this.
