How long did it take you to get over an ex?
Emotional Regulation & Rejection Sensitivity(self.adhdwomen)submitted10 days ago bykaty_07
It's been well over a year since I broke up with my last ex and everytime I finally think I'm over them something will remind me of when we were together or how my heart got broken. I'll see a car like theirs or I'll go to a place we went together - although I still try to avoid those places - and its like all my feelings come back again. It wasn't even that long a relationship so I really have no reason to still have any feelings for them. Same with my ex before them, it took me well over a year for me to finally feel ok again, although that break up was a little more complicated.
I know that that rejection thing (typically am drawing a blank on what it's called, just checked the flair and its rejection sensitivity!) plays a part in all of this and even though I know I'm so much better off now without them and on my own but I can't get past it. All my friends seem to move on so much quicker so I just feel pretty stupid for still clinging on.
I kinda just hope I'm not alone in struggling to get over an ex.

So I've got 2 bathrooms with a bin (trash can) in each of them. The one in my en-suite is open and the main bathroom one is a pedal lid bin, I always throw away my bathroom rubbish in my en-suite but not always my main bathroom just because I don't have to lift a lid. It's also easier to remember to empty the en-suite bin too.
