"I Tried to Trick My Ex into Getting Me Pregnant" -from xojane.com
Oh my goodness how I relate to this article. Not that I ever actually tried to get pregnant. But being so completely broken and worn down by life that another rejection sends you over the edge and beyond logic. Now being on the other side of that bridge, as the author of the article is as well, it’s a really surreal experience to look back on. Even at the time you’re aware of how insane you are being, and you still feel the shame and guilt. But after moving on with your life and getting better, you don’t feel the shame or the guilt anymore. You might feel sorry. Maybe still a little embarrassment. But most of what you feel is relief. Relief that you’re not in that position anymore, relief that you have hit the bottom but that you managed to make your way back up. And also a since of pride, because when you’re that low, the only person who can save you is yourself.
