I'm happy that you have realized this. Sometimes it takes a big incidence to realize that they weren't that great afterall. You're lucky it wasn't worse and that you are strong enough to say bye. You are strong enough to grow and move on as well. So don't worry about that.I'm holding up pretty well actually.
I talked to him and let him know how I feel about the whole situation. I told him I just didn't want this anymore and that he had a month to get out and I was being more than generous.
I realize now that even though he was there, I was alone. I didn't really have anyone to talk to except myself, he was a physical thing more than anything. I felt like I was constantly walking on eggshells when I tried to say anything that wasn't related to what he was interested in. I wanted to sit and talk about the world and how things work and yada yada yada. All he wanted to talk about was videogames, and I felt like I was boring to him.
Needless to say I'm just trying to recoup from the whole ordeal. It's been physically and mentally draining for me.
I wish the few friends that I had in my life would talk to me and get me out of the same house for a little bit. That's not making this situation any easier on me :/
Oh, I know I don't need friends to go out or anything like that, it's just nice to have someone that I'm already comfortable with around. I have anxiety too, just never really medicate for it. So, I try to find other things to cope with it, and it just so happens the 2 or 3 good friends I have are just that. I'm just kinda bummed out they haven't been talking to me much since cold weather hit. I've been trying to go on as many hikes as possible with my pups, garden, write, draw, and get on my pole(I love to pole dance) as much as I can to distract myself from that. I even made the goal to go vegan(erm we'll see about that...)
I guess I'm just trying to get back in touch with myself, and start caring about myself again...
Another thing if he cares about a lot then you must care him as well.
