Hi all,
I thought I'd throw a stone in our pond to discuss what we feel has improved since our last "accident".
In other words, what do you think is better now about you than when you were with your ex, or in general?
For me, breaking up with my ex has been the best thing that ever happened. I am happier now with myself than ever, and all because I finally made the decision to change what I didn't like and not care about other people's opinion on the matter.
Of course, being happier and more self confident has brought improvement to most other areas of my life, as well.
For me, this forum should, yes, be a place where you can just let it all out, all the bad stuff you had to deal with and bear witness to, but also a place where you can stop and say, yeah, sure, it was tough but here's what I learned and made a part of me. In other words, a "positive", you-can-do-it thread.
Please, do post here what you've learned, so that we can all benefit from it.
