This is gonna be a long one, and I hope that someone else can relate or give me some insight into how to reverse this. I was in a very healthy relationship for almost 5 years. It recently ended because I had made a mistake and cheated. We were long distance and were In a position where we weren’t seeing each other more than every 3-4 months for a week. I miss him dearly and we’ve recently decided on trying to work on building back a relationship but it’s going to take time and one of our non negotiable demands were that we see each other more. So now onto my problem. Expressing my feelings to him about how I miss him and our relationship gives me MAJOR anxiety. Thinking about being back together with him makes me anxious and I don’t understand why completely because I do miss him and I do want those things but my body projects these feelings into anxiety and I’m confused. Is this my bodies way of telling me that it’s not a good idea? or am I taking these feelings and projecting them into anxiety because I don’t know how to cope?
