my fp and i broke up a few weeks ago with intentions on both sides to try again once i’m healthier and have a better handle over my bpd. i’ve been in therapy for the past few months because i want to make things work with him and i want our relationship to be healthy for the both of us. it’s helping so much and i’m so happy that i’m doing it.

he recently started dating someone else though, and it has really hurt me. i still want to try things again with him in the future, and he said that he really does too and that the both of us just need time. in the future we can. i’m willing to wait for him and wait until i’m better to get into a relationship again, but this is still really hurting me.

if you’ve ever watched your ex date someone else, how did you deal with it? it’s driving me crazy. did they come back? if they did come back, did it work out?
