Hi , i was in a relationship the first after a divorce of a 20 year marriage , i didn't think i would find love again , i meet this lady through some good friends and we started slow seeing each other on weekends , we lived 2 hrs apart .. we found comfort in each other and the time we spent together was the best time i have ever spent with a women , i could watch the grass grow for ever in her company . as time went on the baggage in both our lives came out and instead of dealing with it we just broke up .. she was scared and so was i .. the going our own ways happened so suddenly and i couldn't believe it happened ...approx 10months ago ... we had little contact and got on with our lives ..i whole time feeling very sad i felt a massive loss .. honestly thought we wold spend our lives together .. i speak of the good times now but there were times that her baggage came out and with out an open communication at these times it would be impossible to have a lasting relationship ...no such communication was possible ... and i know us being apart is better ..but i am still so in love with her ...i messaged her a few days ago and showed her pictures of my apartment which i have renovated ..the finished product ..she didn't reply ..i messaged my feelings and she replied with i think you should move on like i have ..i asked her if she was seeing anyone and she said yes ...i had to get myself home and i vomited many times and just put myself to bed ..i am reliving the weekends i said with her and seeing another guy in her life exactly like i was ...i try to reflect to the times that help me understand that it wouldn't have worked between us but my heart is so full of love for her .. its painful and i can't stop crying

Love that community spirit of helping when times are hard and kudos to you for being apart of it. I'll never forget the days of the floods when I lived in Queensland- ever. It was huge.

It's really good that you are progressing in your grief too. South bank- that brings back memories....I used to walk around there a lot and spend time in the pool...I even jogged around that area...I esp remember the harri christioners beating drums and singing around brissy...I can rem it all now....oh and the yaught I slept in on the river...and Morton bay...the islands- oh yeh, the fishing, etc.

I'm ahead in my studies and finished a shift at work. Also went for a long walk- feeling satisfied...

You live close to so many amazing islands and water spots 🙂

Good Night Monkey ..

Hi ..I recon Qld is a pretty good place to live i am from Vic and have settled into the Qld life ....whenever you go away some where and come home thats when you appreciate ...Every time i come home and have a swim and enjoy the weather ...It sounds like you enjoyed Bris .. lots of good memories ....my brother had a camping weekend on Morton ...we snorkeled ...then we found out later that the water we were in was full of sharks ...not good ...i went on my own one morning and got this weird feeling in the water and pretty much didn't go in again ....other than that it was awesome ....we climbed a big sand dune and ran down it well rolled down it ...walking from the barg to the camp ground was hell with all our stuff .... probably stay in the resort next time ha ha ... I went to the psychologist today it was great got a lot out of it ...still have the thoughts now and then but the emotion is not there ...thank god ...thank god ....well better not speak to soon ...ill just keep going slow ...but defiantly on the up and up ...
