Going round in circles trying to let go

 I'm really struggling to let go of the woman I love. She just wants to be friends now and it's killing me everytime we spend time together as friends. Yet I can't bring myself to make the complete break and not see her at all. The withdrawal from that which I did before for 3 weeks nearly led me to suicide. I just don't know what to do. Suicide actually seems like a reasonable option right now. The only thing that stops me is worrying about how it will affect my family. Life shouldn't be this painful. Why can't she just love me like she used to? How can people just change how they feel about someone? I just don't understand how it's come to this. When I look at her sometimes she doesn't even look attractive to me, plus she has been really dishonest with me, cheated on me, lied to me, uncaring towards me, high maintenance. Why on earth do I feel so strongly for her? God is the only one who can help me now.

I am so sorry about you pain

I am so sorry about you pain anonguy. However the truth is that you have givenover yourself and your power to this woman. I do identify with much of what you have written. I too lost my sanity and nearly lost my life when my partner rejected me. Try to get to meetings you cannot reason this out with this woman but you cangain some sense of self by sharing with other people who have gone through similar experiences. You are not alone. Dying is not the answer and living while having it's ups and downs is certainly a better and safer bet than the alternative. You just haveto recover and gain yourself one day at a time. You will get support and help if youare willing to accept it. If there are no Slaa meetings in your home area go to anyof the fellowships that deal with family or emotional issues. If there are none of these put a notice on here and try to find others in your areawho will start a meeting with you. You are in my thoughts today. Best wishes.
