Regrets

[TheMeg]

I reached out to an ex today. I still think he's a great person but as I'm waiting for a response I regret it so much and I'm having so much anxiety about it. I know I'd love to be able to talk to him again even if it's just once in a while but I'm so afraid of what he's going to say

What helped me is writing in a journal all the things I wanted to say to him. I basically wrote a letter and after I read it I burned it or you could crumble it up..it helped me.

Did you and your ex end on bad terms? What caused the breakup?

I have tried that before but it didn't get rid of the thought of him in the back of my mind. The break up was fine until we tried to be friends and that did not go well. We broke up because he found out he was getting deployed
