Breaks in a relationship are never a promising sign, and while you may have thought it was going to be an innocuous temporary split, he probably had other feelings brewing. The result is that he used the split to break up for good and start going out with someone else. I know how disappointed and hurt you are because this probably feels like not just rejection, but betrayal, too, because you were under the impression the break was going to be temporary, and you’d get back together again as before or even renewed — and that didn’t happen. The opposite did. 🙁
Rejection is very hard to take, but no one dies from it, and neither will you. What you need to do is find a way to stay busy and move on. Take the sad and negative energy you’re feeling and use it for productive ends. Go try a new sport or invite some people you don’t know to have coffee with you. Get a manicure or a fabulous haircut for summer. Do things that fortify YOU and if you still feel low, go out there and do things that fortify those less fortunate than you by volunteering and making the world a better place working with veterans, the elderly, the sick — or whatever works for you.
I’m sorry that you’re hurt, but you’re going to get over this — I just know it. In the meantime, come join me on Facebook at AskApril.com on Facebook at this link: [url]http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=110265355684755&ref=mf[/url]. I hope to see you there. 🙂
