Hi, I feel silly doing this but I’m looking for a safe place to chat with the girlies. I broke up with my long term bf and feel so alone. I’m trying to be strong because I feel like women are always put down for having big emotions, but tbh, I’m hurting.

also this seems really obvious but i needed a therapist to tell me this: overthinking about your feelings isn’t necessarily “feeling your feelings” like yes you should think through and be like “oh i feel this way because im sad” but it also means like feeling where the emotion rests in your body

Hi girl!! I’m so sorry this happened to you. I can promise that you will get over this sooner than you know! It will take time, sadness, rage, and a period of uncertainty and not understanding what went wrong. You will heal. You will feel better. You will realize that you’ve done nothing wrong and all of this is for the better. I’m sure it feels impossible right now, but I promise you will get over this and be happier than ever. It’s okay to hurt, it’s okay to feel. Trust the process. ❤️
