This past week I had the most sour experience ever with relationships. You wanna know the crazy part about it, we weren't even dating.
So, I met this guy at my old job (September 2021) and we were talking for about a month. At first, I thought this was a great guy. The conversations were `good, he was "seeking" a closer relationship with God, and presented himself to be a gentleman. So what's wrong with him? Nothing. I honestly couldn't find a major red flag to say okay he's a no. I prayed and asked the Lord to show me who he really was and nothing major stood out. Fast forward, we ended up going our separate ways (October 2021) because I was not clear on the feelings I had for this guy. I told him we could be friends and build and build a relationship from there but he took it hard.
Fast forward to December 13, 2021, this guy hits me up out of the blue. Now, I'm thinking he's processed his feelings and wouldn't mind being friends. We started talking again for about two days and then he fell off. I mean the dude literally ghosted me. I literally had hope thinking that we could possibly build a friendship. I felt disappointed, heart-broken, and upset. I felt like I should've known it was a distraction from the enemy because that weekend I had came back from a Maverick city concert in Indiana. It was a great worship experience and I was pumped up for my week. Now, well I was until this post, disappointed and upset that I did not even know what to do first.
How to get through a heart break?
So now, I'm here in Starbucks writing to you all about my experience. I spent the time reading scriptures about heartbreak ( Psalm 147:3 and Matthew 11:28) and just talked to God. However, this is not my first rodeo with heart break or disappointment so I have some tips to share with you. Here's some tips for getting through a break-up/ heart break.
Read scriptures that promote healing of a broken heart.
Pray constantly. Talk to God about your feelings. Don't be afraid to be honest before God cause he already know how you're feeling and what you're thinking.
Have a strong system around you. Isolation during a break-up can be one of the dumbest things you could do. It's best to be around friends and family who actually care about your feelings.
Journaling is also a method of mines that's helped me through some really dark paths of life. It allows you to put your thoughts and feelings on paper. Literally, therapeutic (that's what led me to create my own blog).
Meditate on the scriptures of "healing for the broken-hearted". These scriptures will bring you hope and dis-spell doubt and discouragement (this is also the verse I'm currently reading).
