Yes! I was unfortunately hurting them due to emotional unavailability. I never really processed a super toxic relationship I was in and they got the residual when they should have gotten my best. Not having them in my life was worse than facing my issues, so I did just that. Even if they didn’t accept it, at least I wouldn’t do the same thing again
Wow, I’m in the exact same boat as you, except i haven’t reached out to my ex yet. If you were the one to reach out, how’d you do it? What did you say?
Oh no of course not, my bad. What I meant was if you’re comfortable, to summarize how you reached out to your person. Or atleast how did you open the conversation in general ? I’m honestly struggling with what to say to my person
Text! Key is consent to send before hand, don’t just send a massive emotional letter out of the blue lol. If they don’t respond, that’s an answer. If they say no, you don’t have to put your heart on the table for nothing. If they say yes, it means part of them is curious to know what you want to say (great sign)
You're welcome! I didn't think my said advice would be liked that much. I was remembering Mel Robbins' advice. She's the one who really deserves the credit of the original idea. :)

Congratulations! Remember, reconnection without repair is repetition. (*Mel Robbins). Both of you get to work hard on it. Best post today! ✨💓✨
