It's over.

Ranada's met somebody else. We're still going to be good buds and roomies. Not like I have a lot of choice - the station isn't making enough money for me to make it on my own yet and my physical problems have me in pain even when I do something so simple even as taking garbage down to the curb.

We've been precious little other than roomies who have sex every once in a while for a long time now, anyway, so this isn't a total shock. But even knowing down deep that it was coming, I can't help but have this feeling of "Mind that bus, what bus, splat" (and yes, bun, that was taken from Red Dwarf).

Yes, we've "broken up" before. But I think this time - it just feels like she means it, you know? I feel in here like she means it.

Now what the fuck do I do?

Hugs

You hang in there. You rely on your friends. And you go on.

Focus on taking care of yourself as a priority. If you're not seeing a competent therapist, find one. Be among friends. Find things to fill your time that make you happy

You take some time, and remember that mourning a relationship is normal and necessary processing before you try to go back to ye olde routine.

You remember that you have a lot of friends who love and respect you, and will be there for you when you need.

You take extra special care of yourself over the next few weeks, allowing emotions to ebb and floe as they will, and do nice things for yourself when you start to feel down.

*Huge hugs* and plenty kudos on "Mind that bus, what bus, splat" quote. *g*

Just take one day at a time, keep your mind occupied and probably try and keep on a low as far as Ranada is concerned. You're still roomies, fair enough, but at the same time you'll need space to come to terms with what's happened.

Then when you can afford to (or when I can), come sail across the pond and we shall have a Dwarf night in *nods*.

*Agrees totally*

I had Trev as a "roomie" for a while before I just couldn't take it any more... obviously you know what happened next but that won't happen to you Mister DJ of my heart.

Oh damn, my radio station is psychic... here I am leaving you a message and guess what just came on the radio?

Take the best care of yourself that you can.

Bear in mind that even us lurkers out here hold you in esteem.

Can't think of much to say besides that. It's not a fun place to be.

(Says the chap who was roomies with his ex for nearly two years.)

You take care of yourself, for starters, as has been mentioned before.

You know where to find me.

*Hugs & lots of love*

I know what it's like to be best friends & practically roomates with the one you love with occasional sex (typically)... I went through that in my marriage.

I know this is painful & hard as hell... I wish I could make it all better...

Just remember, you are loved & that I am here for you in any way that I am able...

*Even more love & hugs*

Apt quote from The Boys From the Dwarf.
Sounds like you've got a great support net of people who are more than willing to help you out personally through this.
Much love and hugs to you.

As a person who has unfortunately been in your shoes, I can say this; you seem at least on the surface to be very matter of fact about it all, just remember to admit to yourself that yes it will hurt and its ok to allow it to.
I was the same amount of pragmatic when my ex and I went splat (i was 7 mo preg at the time), but it caught up with me eventually. I ended up in the hospital with a KILLER stress migraine and as my ex put it at the time.. "Mind over matter is good for the mind, but not so good for the matter" so let yourself be in the moment when the moment strikes.

Having read your newer post before this one, I'll just say "Hang in there."

*hugs you tight*

Whatever happens hun, we've been friends a long time... I still love you.

Seems my new "relationship" may not be working out either... how about you come to the UK for a bit (Wales to be exact in a couple of weeks) and we can get drunk and slate relationships together?

Always here for you... I hope you know that xx
