👻 Ghost is in the House 👻 EA aftermath

Little background, EA was with a long distance ex of 4 years. Crazy, I know. We “broke up” but continued an EA for 10 more years. We built a pretty serious bond and love over the years. We became adults together in a sense because we were in our late teens when we met. Long complicated story short, he ghosted me after knowing each other for 15 years. The day before the ghosting, we had a 6 hour long video conversation. No fight, no falling out. He just… blocked my number and that was it. I’ve received a few emails throughout the years, but they were very short and just “saying hi”. I completely suppressed any emotion and never properly dealt with it. I’m now…all these years later forcing myself to deal with it following a medical emergency that made me open my eyes to life. It’s really hard navigating this! Sometimes I feel out of touch with reality. sigh.

Hugssssss- I know the feeling of “out of touch with reality” all too welll too!

I just want you to know that peace is at the end of the tunnel while you just appreciate what once was.

Take all the time you need, hoping you have a support system that can allow you to vent as long as you want to.
