Thanks Neverforget,
You have helped me with the information from your session. I am a carer of someone with PTSD, I care for me, I have PTSD symptoms.
My relationship ended six months ago with a man I was and am still in love with. I pushed him away. I guess it was losing this love, (my first real love at the age of 36, that has enabled me to really start my journey to healing).
I guess it is a bittersweet lesson as it does seem that it is the end of the road for us. But, I will always be greatful for it, because without experiencing his love I may have continued down the road of denying myself anything good. Perhaps, your influence will be the same for him at some point too!?
You loved him and tried to help him be loved, he was not ready for that, and you cold not deny yourself feeling loved either. It never means that your love was not good enough or strong enough he was just not ready to embrace that. As the psychologist so rightly pointed out, he is not ready to let himself off the hook yet, concerning the past. His mispalced guilt is keeping him down and until he is willing to see that he is worthy of a good and happy life he will allow his guilt to anchor him there. A sad truth, but only one he can save himself from ( I know all to well).
You will love again and you will be loved. I can see you have a wonderful heart!
I am just thinking? Perhaps, you could send him the post above? Maybe he needs to see all of this from an objective perspective. Maybe, it could help him to see the pattern that he is repeating?
You need to think on this; you need to be sure that if you send it and he does not reply that it will not send you backwards in terms of recovering, don't try to fool yourself you need to be honest with you about that? I guess you could send it at a later date when you are feeling stronger and do not need to have any validation from him?
Well done!
