Hi 👋 that can be tough, I’ve gone through it myself. There were no affairs & we still loved each other but we were miserable & wanted different things from life. So the way I managed it was by getting crystal clear on why I wanted out of the relationship & reminding myself whenever I felt nostalgic, that nothing had changed, so speaking to him would not change anything. It would only confuse me & re open the delicate wound. Also, I was desperate to feel better. So I respected my feelings. I knew I still loved him and that it really hurt and I allowed myself to cry and yearn and just be with myself and comfort myself. Sometimes alone, sometimes with friends, sometimes with distractions from a new hobby etc. and I knew, like with a physical wound, self care and time would help me heal. Hope this helps 🫶
