“I was in a similar situation as Erin, your guest on the show. Except he broke up w me after 2 1/2 Years. I’ve been beating myself up Bc I feel like ultimately I pushed him away w wanting to “have a timeline “ and/or “being 10000% sure this was right.” Thank you sooo much for the advice you shared w her. Although I sensed that, despite him being a good guy, he’s avoidant, & I needed to feel the pain I’m feeling to learn what I truly need. I still feel like I ultimately pushed him away, yet I see that I don’t need to take on his responsibility in this. I’ve learned so much from this breakup, yet I do miss him & wanted to work things out. You showed me that it’s OK to feel what I’m feeling & to acknowledge what I’m feeling at the moment, in the moment. And it’s that: a feeling. A weight has been lifted off my shoulders/mind. Thank you! I enjoy your podcast & have been listening for quite a few months now. This one, however, brought me to tears, as I realized I was looking for answers, yet I already had them.
Xoxo”
