I’m getting back on track

I don’t have a point to all this, I just want to say it

I’m a few months out of a relationship of over a year. Still hurts, but the last few days, I’ve worked out, showered, and gotten class work done. I recently got my W2 and I’m making more than I ever have. I gained a few pounds drinking, but I’m working that off.

I’m thinking I might have gotten a bit too close to being an alcoholic. My ex and I drank way too much for sure. I’ve never had cravings or anything, I just get bored. Now I’m filling up my time a lot more.

I miss him terribly, but I know it’s over. There’s been no contact. I plan to move this summer and get back to dating again. Hopefully after some weight loss. I’m not desperate, but marriage is a goal of mine. It’s not the end of the world if it doesn’t happen, but I’d like it.

I was absolutely devastated, but I believe this is the point that I honestly start to bounce back. I felt good today for the first time in a while.
