How can I force detachment? How can I force myself to let go? I've stood on mountaintops saying "ex, i forgive you." I've looked in the mirror and said "me, i forgive you." If sheer will was enough to do all this, I'd have done it by now. I want to be over this, to be at the point where I'm apathetic... but how? How do I just make it happen?
yes, my ego is wounded. I'm hurt because he didn't come after me. I'm hurt because it feels like I never meant anything to him. I'm angry with myself for being such a sucker and falling for his crap. I'm hurt because he never took responsibility for his actions.
Yes, I know that she's the sucker now and yes, i know that it probably won't work out for them. I know that I'm in a much better place now. I know all these things, but how do I force myself not to care anymore, not to feel the pain? Is it simply "time heals all wounds"?
Does anyone have any detachment tips?
When you are happy as an individual, you are in a better position to determine whether a partner enhances your happy life or weighs it down.
