I’m not the best person to come to for advice, but i’ve been getting a couple of similar comments here so …

Hey Cheryl, i’m sorry you have to go through this tough time. It’s not gonna be easy for sure, but i do hope that it all comes together for you. Don’t focus so much on the pain and try to distract yourself with things like work or school if you’re still studying. I won’t tell you to cheer up and be happy because it’s easier said than done. Do give yourself time and cry if you have to. It’s ok to be sad. Most things will be ok eventually, but some just takes longer than others. Of course, if you feel like there’s still a possibility of reconciliation with your partner, then i’d say fight for it. Moving on seems like a really hard process, but moving on doesn’t have to be sad. No one said moving on means erasing out your memories of your partner from you completely. Keep the good times you guys have had in mind and know that what you all once had did made you happy and at that point you wouldn’t have had it any other way. Be thankful for what you’ve shared together. For now, take your time to heal. Travel, hang out with friends, surround yourself with people and things that matter. Once you find yourself feeling lighter and happier from slowly letting go, things will start to take a turn and get better! I sincerely hope that you’ll find the happiness you deserve in time to come. I hope you’ll meet that one person who loves you for your bad days just as much as your good days, someone who chooses you over anything else, someone who brings out the best in you and makes your heart feel whole again, someone that really deserves you as much as you deserve them. You’ll be alright dear, the days ahead will just get brighter. Stay strong and always stay true to yourself. Don’t ever feel the need to justify the decisions you make to anyone else, because the only person who will understand is you.

Hope this helps in some way!
