I’m not trying to nay say or poopoo you, but the best course of action is to stop talking about/worrying about/focusing on Reddit. A wise friend once said “you’ll never get over your ex if you’re constantly checking on and talking/thinking about your ex.”
This type of post essentially functions as a reddit stand-in for you to discuss reddit while not on reddit. That, in and of itself, is kind of self affirming for reddit. Example - you’re posting this asking if anyone feels the same as you, however, by even asking it, you’re also enabling people to read it and think “gee, maybe they’re right and we should just cave and accept”.
Instead of this type of post, focus on developing the new community you’ve joined. Get over your ex by moving on and focusing on the future, not thinking about what they’re doing or living in the past.
Cheers
How do we talk about something you just encouraged everyone not to read about or discuss because it would spoil it?
