In reply to the discussion: Well I just got dumped. [View all]crunch60
(1,412 posts)43. OMG alarimer, you are just a baby at 44! You have years
ahead of you. I met someone really special at 53, and another at 60, and I hope someone exciting now that I'm much older. LOL. I am friends with my past partners, (most of them) .
You are a whole person without being attached to someone, you have to remember that. Be good to yourself, start going to a health club, work out, get a doggie or other companion, I love doing art, so maybe you could do some classes in that area.
Takes time to get over someone you love and move on, but it will happen if you let it.

I've known the feeling rather well. Try to view it as an opportunity rather than a tragedy.
