I had to chance to heal and come to my sense this weekend
Hi:
On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, I hung out in an area where a favorite convention of mine was going on. Prior to the event, I hoped to cross paths with a former crush of mine and see how he was doing. While I don't know if it was him or not, I noticed he and his friend kept making a habit of avoiding me.
In the meantime, I had a chance to think some things through. For one thing, this guy turned out to be a covert narcissist who treated my very badly. At that point, lots of bad memories came up but I was able to work through everything by reaching a new level of acceptance. At this point, I am able to work through the past.

It must have been a very uncomfortable situation for you! So glad to hear that you could reach a new level of acceptance and are able to work through the past. I hope life will become more relaxing now.

Hi:
I wasn't uncomfortable at all. Actually, I had a pretty good time while making a habit of avoiding that one guy who I thought might be him. I also worked through everything by recording a couple of vlogs on a platform that I belong to.
During one of them, I had a chance to talk about the nature of his behavior. I also talked about how how he treated me after manipulating me for 6 months. It helped me realize that this person isn't very nice
@Summershy
Nice to hear that there was a good outcome for you after all!
@Summershy
That must have brought some much needed peace of mind. Well done on your development!
I myself am learning a thing or two about acceptance. I believe I was too reliant on others for validation, and it would lead to upset when I felt under-appreciated.
