What is wrong with this?

Posted by rainbutterfly on September 17, 2006, at 5:34:34

I am not "normal".
It takes me longer to "get over" betrayal by a "friend" than anyone else I know. What the hell is wrong with me. It isn't as if I can't keep any friends either. I have several good, close, long term friends. They are all intelligent, kind, interesting people. So I can't be a complete "loser" (hate that word UGH)

Ugh.

Hi rb,
Try to be easy on yourself. Having the rug pulled out from under you does not mean that there's something wrong with you. And having that happen naturally leaves us unsure of our footing for a bit, and extra cautious.

Try to take what you can from the experience to learn and grow. Be easy on yourself. Allow yourself to mourn what is lost. It will get better. But it just really sucks for awhile. I wish it didn't. But you know, if it didn't hurt, I suppose then what was lost didn't mean so much perhaps? And having connections with others is a beautiful thing, even if they are not all meant to last.

I think I'm making progress on this now.... internally. And maybe I am making progress re. my attachment/abandonment issues generally.

Thanks for your support! (((( gg ))))
