Sarah (7800 KP) created a post in Dear Smashbomb....

Sep 9, 2018  
I’ve had a bit of a hard time recently and have discovered that sharing really helps, so bear with me while I share the very shortened version. I found out a couple of weeks ago that my partner of 3 years was seeing someone else behind my back. Needless to say I kicked him out and haven’t heard anything from him since, but the whole thing has just left me shattered. It was a complete shock, something I would never have suspected from him, and I myself was so happy and oblivious, which just makes it worse. I’m so angry and upset and the past few weeks have been a huge struggle.

I think the worst part of it all is the thought of starting all over again. I’m 31 and the thought of starting dating and relationships again terrifies me. All of my friends have or are settling down, this is what I wanted too yet i now feel so alone, like the odd one out. I know i can’t do anything about all this, but it sadly doesn’t make it any easier to deal with.

Not looking for advice, just looking for an outlet and a sympathetic ear!

Sorry to hear what you've been through, feel free to vent whenever you need.
I too feel for you - I can't even pluck up the courage to do raids with other people on Pokémon Go, the thought of having to date again fills me with dread. But I'm sure you'll meet the right person when you least expect it.
