It’s about time I said something.
I’m back in New York.
Without Josh.
No, I’m not happy about it. I’m devastated. I’m heartbroken.
All that I’m going to say is that we need some time apart right now. It’s not what I want, but it’s what needs to happen. We just need to play it out right now and be patient and see what develops. Live our own lives and hope that they come back together one day. Trust me, it’s harder than it sounds.
Now, before you go getting angry at Josh, let me stop you right there. Please remember that there are two sides to every story and that you probably only hardly know mine. I don’t want to hear how Josh is a big meanie head for making me hurt. I love him very much and I don’t want to hear you insult him in any way.
I think that sometimes life just creates situations that are painful. If we choose to come out of them as stronger people and learn from our experiences, then sometimes we can get exactly what we were searching for in the first place. We just couldn’t get there before because there just wasn’t a short cut. We had to take the long way. So here I go along on my long path to what and who I want to be. Hopefully I find Josh again along the way.
At least someone is happy that I’m back. Moko has situated herself in my suitcase (which I still haven’t had the heart to unpack) just in case I decide to try and leave again.
Hopefully I’ll have some interesting things to share with you in the near future.
i have faith that this will all work out for the best between you two and i hope that you’ll be together again soon. chin up, and be strong.
I’m not going to badmouth Josh. I definitely understand the two sides to every story thing. I hope that you two can work through things and eventually find your way back to each other. *hugs* We’re here for you.
oh catilin, i’m sorry to hear you are going through this. :(((
got to see what time will bring, who knows? peace peace peacefullness wished to you, it will get better.
*hugs*
Stay strong and use this time to focus on yourself and finding out what YOU want in life. I believe that it two people are meant to be together than they will be, even if there are bumps along the way.
Oh Caity :( I am so sorry that you are going through such a painful and troubling time right now. My heart breaks for you. I know that you made the right decision for now and everything is bound to work out in the end! It has to. Life throws us a curve and we try our best to avoid it. You know in your heart that it will be okay, eventually. Keep positive. *big hugs*
Do I think Josh is the best? No. But that is only because he let you go. :P You’re just awesome, I’d like snuggle-hug you to death.
I do think however that you both are doing the right thing and can’t imagine how hard this must be for the both of you. Whatever the conclusion I know that you both will come out with a renewed sense of self and happiness.
Keeping you in my thoughts.
I am so sorry to hear that. It sounds like an incredibly hard decision, but it’s very brave to do, even if it is hard. Needless to say I hope things work out the best for you both. Hugs!
I’m so sorry to hear this, hun. I’m sure that you are doing the right thing, and that if the two of you are supposed to be together that you will find a way to be together. Just try to keep positive, as much as you can. *hugs*
I’m so sorry to hear that :( I really hope that everything works out, and that the two of you are drawn back together before long. To me it sounds like there’s definitely still love between you two, so I’m sure things will work out in the end somehow. *hugs*
I understand the 2 sides to every story. Matt and I are going through the same sort of situation. I wish you the best!
Oh, Caity, I am so sorry! *hugs* I hate to see someone so genuinely nice go through something so heartbreaking. I hope that the two of you find your paths intertwining again. I know this is a hard journey for you but you are a very strong person. I hope everything works out for the best, hun.
I really really hopes that this sorts out. You’re such a good-hearted, beautiful person and you deserve all the love in the world. I don’t want you to ever be heartbroken.
Sometimes, as they say, distance makes the heart grow fonder. We all need to take a break. I hope that you guys are able to work things out, make peace, and come back together. *hugs for Caity*
I’m so sorry honey and I hope and pray that in the end you and Josh will come back together as an even stronger couple. I think you’re handling the situation very maturely and that’s rare, honestly.
*hugs*
*hugs* I’m so sorry things turned out this way. I hope you and Josh can work it out and everything goes well in the end.
you have a truly admirable attitude about this all – things will fall into place..a good place…you deserve it.
I’m so sorry. *hugs tight* I love you hon, you are awesome. I’m sorry that you are hurting. I’ve been there very recently and it will get better, and you will find the person you are meant to be. If you need to talk I’m here.
I am so sorry hunny :( I def know how you feel as I am going through the same thing. I don’t know what happened, but whatever the case may be, you guys will get through it. I hope nothing but the best for you and josh. If you ever wanna talk or even meet up (im in jersey) hit me up!! ((hugss))
That’s an amazing outlook to have on a situation that can be described, at best, as less than desirable.
You are a strong, amazing woman. Never forget :)
If you want to chat about anything, you know where to find me <3
And make sure to cuddle Moko! She must have missed you lots!
I’m sorry to hear that you two are in different places right now. But I’m glad to see that Moko’s happy that you’re back! I bet she really missed you while you were gone, no wonder she’s put herself into your suitcase! *hugs*
I’m so sorry that y’all are apart. I hope things work out. (((HUGS)))
I’m so sorry to hear that sweetie! *big hug* I hope it’s all for the best and that you’ll find the right solution in the end – either way.
Sounds like moko wants to be packed in your suitcase if you leave again :P
I’m sorry to hear this.
I hope everything works out.
Your hurt makes me hurt, and I hope this is all resolved soon. Big huge hugs from the UK.
Caity, I’m SO SO sorry. I know there are no words that can heal the pain you’re in but know that there are tons out of here hurting for you. Sending tons of love your way and I hope you find happiness in the little things. <3
Things will work out for the best in the end, and I do hope that you end up back together. If anything, maybe this will make him realize just how special you are. Give Moko some hugs, maybe it will make you both feel better.
Dad & I are both so sorry that you are going through this. WE LOVE YOU VERY MUCH and hope and pray that everything works out for the best for you. Hang in there. Lots of Love, Mom xoxo
Oh my gosh, I just saw this and I am so, so sad for you. I won’t claim to know what you’re going through, but know that if you ever need a sympathetic ear, I am here – just shoot me an email.
I hope everything works out in the way that feels best to you. Hugs and lots of support to you.
*Your life* is a magnificent story because *You* have realized that *you* are the author and every day *you* have the opportunity to write a new page.
Caity, everything happens for a (good) reason, we don’t always see it right away, but you will be a better person for this, happier, healthier, stronger. You will become even more beautiful and brilliant. This is a difficult time, but look how brave you are, look at all your courage and you are facing them headstrong. Already you have shared your story and you have also been good in not tarnishing Josh’s name no matter how acute the pain. Do you know how much that takes out of your emotional well-being Caity? You have Power Caity, and you are/ will use it to push yourself forward with grace and finesse. We are here cheering you on! {soul hugs} from Paris
*hug* looks like everything’s been said so that’s all I’m gonna say about that.
As for the cat, just be careful if you need something that’s underneath her ;)
Oh Caity. I’m so sorry this is happening. I don’t know exactly what “this” is but I hope that everything works out, one way or another.
Moko looks so worried! Non cat people can call me crazy but I think our pets know when we’re sick or hurting. I hope she’s able to comfort you some.
Like I said before, I am so, so sorry about this. You are incredibly strong it it will work out one way or the other. ♥
Oh Caity, my heart is breaking for you. I’m so sorry to hear about the tough road you are travelling right now. Sending thoughts and prayers your way.
Oh love, *hugs*. I’m so sorry to hear. However – don’t think we’re going to badmouth Josh. There are two sides to every story, and in the end – you have to do what makes you happy as well.
Wish I could give you a big hug right now!
:( I hope things get better and that everything works out!
*hugs* As said on Snark, it’ll all work out in the end :) Just keep hope and just live your life for yourself. Good luck to both you and Josh :D
I so didn’t see this coming. I hope you’re able to work things out.
I’ve already said everything I had to say on the matter, but hang in there :) No matter what happens in the end be it staying apart or reconciling, it’ll end up being the best thing that could have happened :) I have faith!
And that picture of Moko is adorable!
You’re awesome, plain and simple. I am thinking of you and I know you’re going to pull yourself up and keep going towards a happier, healthier you.
*big hugs* Caitlin. I’m sorry things are going well at all with your relationship. It’s hard and I’m sure you’ve done the right thing by putting some distance between you until you both sort things out. Good luck with everything. I’ll be thinking of you.
So sorry to hear this Caity. If you felt you needed some time apart then having chosen to do it can only be a good thing. I’ll keep you guys in my prayers :)
I’m so sorry, Caity. There’s nothing I can say that will help, I know, but just know that we are all here for you if you need us. <3
I am so sorry Caity! My husband and I had an extremely difficult time ( from October 2006 to June 2010) and things are just now starting to get better. I hope things work out for the both of you and you both can be extremely happy.
*hugs* I’m so sorry.
Stay strong.
I feel bad for just now reading this. I wondered by statuses on FB if you were back in NY. Just keep your head up and we will be thinkin of ya.
Caity, I’ve only now just had time to catch up and this took me by surprise. I’m so sorry you have to go through this. But, everything happens for a reason [which has gotten me through my life so far] and I’m sure this has a damn good reason.
Be strong and have faith. <3
I am so sorry Caity.
