After all we had a connection, a deep connection, or so I thought, and we shared a strong love for one another.

I suppose this phase is only natural after the ending of a relationship of any kind, even if it was abusive.

I miss the good parts of him, I miss him sending me sweet text messages in the middle of the night telling me how important and special I am to him and how much he loves me. I miss the closeness we shared. I miss going to him for support when I need it. I miss THOSE things.

Then again, he turned out to be verbally and emotionally abusive and like poison for me. So of course, I keep reminding myself of this so that I don't miss the good parts as much.

What a process!!! Guess this is just going to take a while. Wish it would just hurry itself up! I want to get past this!!!!
My therapist told me that it’s normal to miss ones ex but when you do, don’t think of good things, think of what was bad so you won’t be missing him.
