I’m sorry you’re hurt. Anger is a secondary emotion that masks hurt, so it’s understandable you got dumped, got hurt and expressed anger. Allow yourself the time you need to heal — alone (and by alone, I mean without him).

Rejection is hard to take because it hurts, but the reality is, it’s a gift in disguise. The worst thing anyone can do is waste your time knowing you’re not their Ms. Right. He did you a favor by cutting you free so you CAN go out there and find a man who is perfect for you. He knew he wasn’t because he didn’t have marriage feelings for you, and he did you right by letting you go.

This is NOT the right time to try and contact him again. You’re going to be super hurt when you see him pursuing another woman, buying a home and looking to marry and start a family. Let go — for now. When you’re back on your feet and your daily crying count is down to zero, only then can you consider befriending BOTH he and his girlfriend (because she is part of his life now). If this idea is distasteful to you, you’re not ready.

I’m sorry for you pain, and I know that with time you’re going be just fine. Let the time pass and take good care of yourself.

I hope that helps and that you’ll follow me @AskAprilcom on Twitter and on Facebook at this link: [url][/url]. 😀
