  • I was deeply hurt and resentful towards my ex-partner for years after he cheated on me, even though I was in a new relationship. [05:52]
  • I held onto this resentment for 8 years, which ate away at me and made it difficult to be normal around my ex. [04:06]
  • Eventually, my ex reached out to apologize, which triggered a flood of emotions. [09:45] However, I processed these emotions fully, letting them out instead of suppressing them. [12:00]
  • After this emotional release, I felt a sense of clarity and no longer harbored resentment towards my ex. [13:32] I could see him in a neutral, friendly way, reclaiming my personal power.
  • This story is to encourage others who may be struggling with similar feelings of resentment towards an ex, emphasizing the importance of fully processing emotions rather than holding onto them.
