You're on the list. I feel for you.

Monica,
I only can imagine your pain right now. You are in my thoughts and prayers right now. Listen closely and use your "wise mind" in which way you want to proceed.

Dear Monica,

You are wise to realize that you still love him even though you think you shouldn't. Once you accept that you will always feel love for him to some degree, you will feel more peace and be able to settle into what is. Here is prayer for your broken heart, for you, for him and for the future.

I am so sorry for your pain. There is no way to "turn off" feelings. That takes time. You will be in my thoughts and prayers...there are many here who will listen if you need them.

I will keep you in my thoughts, Monica. I know how hard a breakup can be. Its a cliche, but time will help you heal. Just stay quiet for a while and let the Universe stear you in the way you should go. Keep strong.

Yes, you will be in my prayers.

Monica,
You're in our thoughts and prayers. This is an awful time for you - that goes without saying or should have. Any break-up is very, very hard and hurtful, but the ones in which we still feel love for the other person are the worst. Hang in there, if you need to talk, feel free to email me anytime.

Monica, of course you are in my prayers...I pray for strength, courage and that He send His Comforter to help you through this difficult time.

We've all lived in those deep valleys for periods of our lives, and can relate to your loss on some level. While we're there we think it impossible to heal, but humans have a magical way of healing, mind, soul, and body. Keep your chin up and know that you are loved, and the Gather circle will envelop you with light and life through love. Blessings on you Monica.

My heart breaks along with yours as I have walked this walk you're walking now. I've been in your shoes. You have my prayers and my hugs, and big shoulders to lean on. We can't pick and choose whom we love nor can we turn off those emotions, as if they are public water works. The best advice I can give you, is start a new journal. Journal your hurts, your rants, your raves, your revelations and eventually you will again begin to journal you joys. All things in God's time, even when we think there is no end in sight. We are not forgotten. Message me if there is anything I can do to help.

Monica, honey, I'm so sorry! What a shocking, heart-breaking time this must be for you. I'd like to give you a big hug! Mail me privately if you'd like my phone number or email address, of if you'd prefer for me to phone you. I have a flexixble schedule and could even spend a few days with you if you need f2f support.

What do you mean you shouldn't love him? There are no shoulds in matters of the heart, and in fact, the only should I know about love is God's commandment to love! Accept the state of your heart and trust God to hold you up. Know that I love you and will keep you in my prayers.

Monica,

I'm so sorry. As you know, I'm not a particularly religious person, but I am spiritual. Regardless, my heart goes out to you in these difficult times.


I know this isn't the time for lectures or advice, but I hope that you'll remember that your self worth is determined by more than the actions of one person, even someone that you love.

You have compassion, talent, empathy and so many more wonderful qualities. Take care of Monica well, don't fold the tent and give up on the world, and all things tend to work out.

Your friends are here for you, should you need us.

Eric

You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless.

It is hard no matter how mean a person is. I will pray for you.

Oh Monica, I'm so sorry. Splitting up is a beast, but having friends is an enormous support system. Blessings and love to you..........

Girlfriend, I am praying as hard as I can....you will feel better, at some point...

I am sending thoughts and prayers your way. I so hope you find peace with this situation and there are many here on gather that will try to comfort you if you ask. Please take good care of yourself during this difficult time.

Thank you all. I am feeling much better tonight and know in my heart that this is the best for us both. It takes two to make a marriage work and no matter how much I try, I cannot change that fact, and no matter how much I love him, I cannot change that fact.

I went to a divorce bible study group on Tuesday and it helped me a lot. We discussed forgiveness - more importantly what forgiveness is not. I needed to hear that forgiveness does not mean there is no more pain, nor does it mean there must be reconciliation. I have been forgiving and trying to force reconciliation on something that is far out of my control, and it is okay to simply forgive and move on.

I will do my best to treat Jeff with kindness and compassion, but it is okay to say yes, you are right, it is over. I will learn from this marriage and I know God will help me in the next, hopefully final marriage. I am not foolish enough to think it will all be easy from here, and I know there will still be nights I long for Jeff, but I have come to realize that the real Jeff and the Jeff I thought I was married to and loved are two different people. I love and am grieving the Jeff I thought I was married to, but that person does not exist.

Hang in there

Divorce does cause one to grieve. It took me a long time to get back to normal following my divorce from my children's father. Time heals. Huggers to you Monica.

Monica, I am sorry to hear about this. You are in my prayers. Like the song says, breaking up is hard to do. It will take time to heal from this.

Monica, I've only just 'met' you, but I'm so impressed by your strength. You've got it goin' on, girl. And your faith is what I think will see you through this and will eventually lead you to THE Mr. Right.

You are in my prayers

Monica,

My prayers are truly with you!

Stay strong.

Wow, I have been there...many, many years ago. And yes I will pray for you. I can only tell you from my experience...get on with your life, seek counseling but try to make sense of it all if you can. When my first husband decided that fatherhood and marriage was not for him, I was devastated to say the least. And when he figured it all out, he wanted back in my life after his affair was over....blah, blah, blah...too late. Life goes on and you will become a better person. Good luck.
