My Ex Texted!

Submitted by: Stephanie

Belgium

I'm a dreamer and a believer who tries to live life to the fullest.

Hi everyone,

I’m still in shock, with tears in my eyes typing this story. I have had a lot of negative relationships. Although I thought they were negative, I felt heartbroken most of the time while running to the next date or relationship.

Then I met a guy while I wasn’t focussing on meeting new guys. In the beginning, I turned him down because I didn’t have any interest in meeting new guys and I was afraid of opening up again. Then I went on a holiday and he joined me spontaneously. We had the best time ever. I was in love with my dream guy! I never had a guy who was such a caring and giving person like he was.

Two months passed by and then our relationship went from amazing to poor. He lied about several huge things because he did not want to lose me, so we had discussions all the time. I did not trust him anymore and he could not be himself anymore because he was afraid of saying the wrong things.
After a lot of discussions and fights, we broke up. I tried to convince him to give it another shot, he couldn’t do it anymore. We loved each other so much but because of miscommunication and negativity, we had lost the feeling of loving each other. I was miserable because I began to realize that I had projected all the negative energy and emotions of my previous relationships into my next relationship.

That day I met an incredible woman who taught me that I had to focus on myself. That I had to take care of that wound in my heart because of the pain of the past. In the evening I watched The Secret and I became grateful for all the things I had in my life. I shifted my energy from him to myself. I began to feel happiness inside of me, with small steps of course. I finally knew that I had to focus on me, myself, and I. I am the only one in control of my happiness and emotions.

The next day I wrote a gratitude letter to my ex. I thanked him for bringing up the old wounds of the past, for the lovely moments we had. I also wrote all the things I liked about him. And then, I finally let go.

One minute after, I got a text from him. I couldn’t believe my eyes! I had faith in the Universe but I never imagined having a result that quickly. My eyes are still filled with tears after typing my story.

We now are communicating the way it should be. And no matter how things might work out, I’m fine with it. I love him so much, but if the Universe has better plans for me, then I trust the process.

What I really want you to know is that you have to let go of the past. When you are really are open to positivity, you will get what you want, trust me.
