How to get over a relationship which really never existed

We do have a 15-year age difference. I haven't talked to anyone about this because when I realized it, it seemed like a bit of a silly problem. But I have dated before and never found it this difficult to get over a particular man. Yes, I am giving it time and trying to understand what's happening.

@poojasa432 Since you are giving it time and trying to understand then I'd like to say you are doing what you need to do for yourself. You've also indicated in another note that you are not connecting with him or doing anything to get him back. You are very wise in that you understand that this situation is teaching you something.

Have you thought about journaling? If you do this, I suggest writing by hand for a set period of time (15 minutes to start?) in which you set a timer. Then just write away without any editing. When I've tried to process something that I feel is huge in my life that I don't understand but I know is holding me back somehow I have found that this kind of journaling was helpful for me. I get to a new understanding without completely realizing how I got there but that's OK. The process is helpful and then I can talk about that with my therapist.

What d you think about my suggestion?
