My EX Wants to be Friends. I Just Can’t.

Hi. I’ve been grappling with something lately that’s a bit tough to talk about. My ex-boyfriend, let’s call him Daniel for anonymity’s sake, keeps reaching out to me wanting to be friends. My emotions have been spinning out of control.

When we broke up, it wasn’t easy. I was really hurt and all I could do was cry. I haven’t gotten much better. The feelings are still raw. But Daniel thinks we can just pick up where we left off, and I know that would just ruin what’s left of me.

I’ve been doing a lot of soul-searching lately, trying to figure out what’s best for me. I know I need to prioritize my own emotional well-being, even if it means disappointing someone else. It’s not that I don’t care about him or value what we had. I just know I can only go backwards with him. He’s more than just an ex. He’s a drug.

So, for now I ‘ll work on myself and stay on the healing journey. I have to be honest with myself and respect where I am in the journey.

Thanks for listening. I’ve been so torn apart…having an outlet makes it just a bit easier.
