On Saturday May 26th 2007 my infamous 17 years' relationship ended for ever. No matter how ill and toxic it was, I feel terrible emptiness, and it's very hard to cope with life now. It's like a death in the family.
There's clothes and CDs and books to pack, and plenty of mutual things that I don't know what to do with, icluding tons of photos, souvenirs, and the dog.
Thank God there is Geiselwind and Zottegem to look forward to, otherwise I don't know what I'd do with myself.
I am now 31 and so experienced, devoid of all hope, faith, and love.
Sorry for the rant. As it says in the topic, this is just a thread for those who wish me well.
An announcement for those who wish me well
It's always sad when these things happen, but there's hope too, and plenty of good things to look forward to. Clinging on to something that's run it's course will only end up destroying you, so let yourself feel the hurt and get it out of your system!
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

be relieved, there is more to life. One will learn to cope with it and... simply live on. Things you have lived with for so long suddenly disappearing always rip a part of yourself with them. But you can leave it behind. Most importantly, I think, is to find something to live for again.
It's good to be back

One of the hardest things in life. The end of a long term relationship...
All the good things are said above. HL is a good place to talk to people and find true caring friends. It's you who has to deal with this pain which is, from my own experience, horrible....like someone close to you died indeed. Just do not forget that you are never alone...
All the best Emma!

Still so young at 31 emma, as everyone has correctly said, time heals. Stay strong, and lookforward to The Heartland Effect at Zottegem.

I had a 10yr relationship/marriage that collapsed and have only recently emptied the last of his things from the attic. Even though it was for the greater good that this happened (he is now in prison) it makes it no easier when I am reminded of him as he is part of my past that created my present. My heart goes out to you.

I recently came out of a relationship myself. Mine was nothing compared to 17 years but I know it's hard to come to terms with.
The others are right, time is the best healer and you will feel better with time.
I found the best way to forget about her was to do fun things with friends that would occupy me.
All the best emma

hi em
although we don't know each other personally. If you need a listening ear/eye, you'll know how to PM. Hang onthere. Zottegem is not far away

I wish I was 31 again.
Sorry to hear your news Emma
But you know you're amongst friends at HL.
Remember the HL effect & you can do anything.

it is probably hard to believe now that there'll be a day, when it doesnt hurt anymore. But this day will come. Believe that your next relationship will be better - and it will be.
All the best!

Put their heads on f*cking pikes in front of the venue for all I care.
Thank you all.
I will reply to all the PMs, sooner or later. Not just now, cause now I have to check the trains between my place - Geiselwind - Zottegem - my place, and decide whether to go by train or by car. If I go by car, I will have 3 or 4 free places between Geiselwind and Zottegem.
As for the relationship, by far the worst thing about it is that I feel guilty for its demise. Not entirelly, but partially, yes. Was it his drinking that caused my sick obsession with the Sisters, or was my obsession what caused his drinking? This very question won't let me sleep at night, and as I try to go back to our past, I still can't see which to put the blame on.
Which is why I decided to put the announcement on this very forum.
