Me and this guy work together, that’s how we met. We dated for about 6 months, it wasn’t a great relationship; he was mentally abusive and cheated. I was too blinded by my feelings for him to leave him until finally I had enough and knew I had to get my shit together. Anyways, I went into it knowing if we broke up I would have to try and be professional around him at work. I mostly just stay away from him, but the few times I have to be around him or pass him in the hall, i still get so angry and have to fight the urge to insult him or call him a name. I know this is immature so like I said, I don’t do it, I just stay away from him and bite my tongue when around him. We haven’t talked for most of that time, I don’t see him outside of work or even look at his social medias. I don’t want to be with him or miss him, he no longer makes me sad, but for the life of me I can’t seem to get rid of this anger. Now he was my first love and my first adult heartbreak, so I figure that is why it’s so hard, but will I ever get over it or will I always be mad? Ofc no one actually knows this, I’m asking in more of a tell me your story if you’ve been through something similar kind of way.
Is it normal to still feel a lot of anger and resentment towards and ex a year and a half later?
