feels like i’m missing a limb
Figured out that the person I'd been talking to for a year was hiding a longterm relationship under a pile of increasingly elaborate lies. I knew there was something off before, but I let him convince me that it was a misunderstanding. Today, I remind myself that I'm sad because that wouldn't be the case in the absence of a genuine connection. Of course with my luck, the abrupt breakup happened in the midst of an inordinate amount of work stress.
I can't stop crying (tbh I can barely function) so I'm allowing myself to wallow this weekend. This week I can address what changes I need to make to prevent this from happening again.
