You may not know how yet, but mostly that's because you haven't been challenged like this before. You will get through it though. And you'll be very happy when you do. Pleasantly surprised by how good life is and how good your life will be.
For now, realize you're worth it. You really are. Realize it's painful, but it's not about you. You'll need to let her go, and it will hurt, but you'll be ok and will thrive.
It's also ok to cry. If it didn't hurt, it wouldn't have been worth it.
If I were to look back at me when I was in that spot, I would tell myself the same things. I know it would still hurt, but I also see myself now and realize it only hurts for a while. I realize it only hurt because it was worth hurting over.
I don't hurt any longer. I am very happy and full of joy actually. That took time, effort and a lot of tears to get there.
It was worth it the entire time. The good and the painful. I wouldn't trade a moment of it now.
Peace, AJ
