Ex has moved on :(

Ex has moved on :(

Hi!
I’ve never reached out to anyone on anything like this before but I am feeling completely broken. Four weeks ago I asked my ex, the father of my kids (who I’m still in love with) if he had moved on. He replied “I’m not gonna lie I am seeing someone” .. since this day I have been completely heart broken I can’t even explain how I am feeling. He works away in Mt Isa for months & is coming back to see our daughters less & less but video calls them most nights.

All I can think about is him with someone else 24/7 feel like I’m in a deep dark hole I can’t get out of. I just can’t snap out of it. He knows I still love him but he doesn’t care. He knows I’ve been in hospital last week but did not text once to ask if I was ok or our daughters were ok. He knows Im not ok & upset but says nothing. He has never been able to communicate with me & is terrible at communicating wit most people.

I feel so worthless & sad. I don’t know how to act towards him & just wish I could win him back 😞 or get him to realise he wants to come home to me & my daughters. I gave everything to him but feel he never made any effort in return just continued to work away.

just don’t know what to do anymore 😞 😞 😞

So true @Little_Leopard - it’s about doing what is in OUR power @Bee82 .

And how to act towards him? As much as it hurts, if it were me, I wouldn’t show him I’m angry. But I would show him that no matter what happened, I’m not going to let his choices ruin me! I would want to show him I’m better than that.

In the meantime, I hope you can get some professional support to help you through this.

You deserve it.
