Amy, sometimes doing the right thing just hurts. Take it one day at a time, and try to find something good in each day. Feel better soon.
Thanks, BigCatKeeper. Everyone keeps saying it will get better, but honestly, I’ve just felt worse and worse ever since it happened. At the beginning I was confident it was for the best, but as time goes on that is wearing off. I made a decision a long time ago (probably around the time we got engaged) that we were together now, for better or worse, and I was totally devoted to him. That doesn’t just go away.
Amy I feel your pain. I was in a relationship for over 4 years that I ended about 4 years ago now. He had some anger and mental health issues that were not getting better. We had talked about getting married and he tried to give me a ring and I was totally loyal to him but after he worked out of town for a year things went downhill and I felt I couldn’t trust him and then I found out later he cheated on me. I was devastated and suffered from severe depression after that and it took me over a year to get over it and slowly get better. I knew we would never get back together and I joined a group at my church called Freedom Session that I attended for several months that helped me overcome my depression and feel hope again and I also sought out counselling through a psychiatrist and psychologist and am still get therapy about various things now that has helped. Since that ended, I managed to meet some other great guys and have been in a couple relationships where the guys treated me a lot better. My advice would be if things weren’t that bad with you guys and you think things are maybe worth salvaging, maybe look into counselling for yourself and relationship counselling that could help you both and maybe see if you can reconcile. But if you think you can do better and deserve better then I would say focus on yourself and getting help and feeling good and hopeful again and realize there are other great guys out there.
Looking for rainbow or pink & teal grab bags!
BigCatKeeper – I am SO jealous right now! Congratulations on a fantastic grab! Can’t wait to see more pics.
Me too! Maybe Melody will do a batch next time in the darker, more earthy colors like this one. I’d like to see more koi ones too.

I was like wait, what did I miss and I did miss the post.
Congrats bigcatkeeper!!!!Thanks to everyone (Setsunawolf, BigCatKeeper, Kim, Aggie83, and Natasha) for their kind words. I see the world has been crappy to a lot of us. To everyone who got cheated on, you deserve so much better than that. Ultimate betrayal. I’m so sorry for all of you. Those guys are scum of the earth.
Kim, I’ve been in therapy for years before this ever happened, and really intensely ever since it happened. Had an appointment today and have another tomorrow morning. I don’t think there’s any chance of us reconciling. Even though I was the one that made a lot of huge sacrifices for the relationship, he’s the one who wouldn’t go back to me (and he moved to Arizona). After it all ended he told my mom he feels “relieved and free”. I am still so hurt/incredulous at that. He used to chain me to the bed/ceiling with stuff he bought at the hardware store for God’s sake, and he feels free? I just want to die. I did everything for him. I put him through college, worked two jobs (40+ hours a week) while he stayed home playing video games and sleeping all day, cleaned, did laundry, cooked (after already getting home from a 10 hour work day) and if I asked him to help because I was exhausted he’d say he was tired too. I’d be a fool to go back to that life, but I still would. My brain is ruined T-T
And I’m sorry to air my dirty laundry all of the ori showoff thread. This really isn’t the place for it…
I’m still over the MOON you got that little boy, BigCatKeeper! I can’t wait to see more glamor shots!
It’s morning! That means I have much better lighting, and can take better pictures!
He’s really beautiful, and if I’m stuck with him I won’t mind too much; but I’m hoping to trade him for one of the Cool Orientals with color on their chest, which would blend better with my Oriental family and my decor. (Trade ad now up in the Classifieds!)
Interested in buying or trading for: GB Pebble Sitting Red Fox in dark grey, Lap Dragon Test Paints (Water Sprite, Glacial Pearl, Opulence, Pastel Rainbow, and many others - see my Classifieds ad), Blue Morpho OW, GB Pebble Loaf dragons in blue/aqua/teal, and Griffin Test Paints (Black Rainbow or Frosted Jade).
Amy – I suspect I speak for most all on here, no need for any apologies. This forum is a place for those who love Windstone, but it is also a place where we can offer support when someone is hurting. People who have never met in person can still care and be concerned about each other. Take care.

I. Love. It.
Looking for...
Sitting young oriental dragon koi gold and white
My little Ori arrived! He’s a cutie and reminds me of some sort of fruity tropical drink, something with Curacao in it! He’s not one of my favorites though, so I’ll be posting an ad shortly… If this fella is your favorite, let me know!
This is such a charming sculpt, I’m already looking forward to the next batch, haha. Thank you Melody!
Forever seeking: Blackwatch the raffle Old Warrior, Jennifer Miller's pieces, and GB Baby unis!
Mine is supposedly arriving at my place today. I’m going to see if my husband is around to send me pics! There are still two in the batch I like that haven’t showed up, so finger’s crossed. I don’t think I LOVE those two, but I could probably live with them happily. Kinda hilarious how stressful it is waiting!
Hugs, Amy. It sounds like you KNOW you are much better off without him – no you just have to wait for your heart to catch up with your head. It takes a long time, sometimes, but you’ve at least taken the first step by acknowledging you are physically better off without him!

Oh HOORAY! I’m still at work, but my husband was off today and my box arrived today! I got one of the non-white ones and I am super relieved. I will look at pics of other non-white or red-eyed ones, but I would also be thrilled to keep her! I’ll take pics with less stuff in the background when I get home tonight, lol, but here’s some first shots!

^^^ This, a hundred times. It sounds like you are an extremely generous, dedicated person with a huge heart. Unfortunately, amazing people like that can be easily taken advantage of and it sounds like that is what happened to you. While your heart heals, we’re all here for you.
Me too! Maybe Melody will do a batch next time in the darker, more earthy colors like this one. I’d like to see more koi ones too.
Oh, I would LOVE this! And be so broke!
I feel like there are lots of unaccounted for oris all ’round. I know they could have been easily purchased by non-forum users, but anyone else here waiting on theirs to show up? I’m excited for more eye candy.
Thanks, BigCatKeeper! I cant tell if the scales are color shift, or just blended different colors of paint. I’ll be able to tell in person and show her off properly! I was so freaking relieved not to see white or pastel, ha ha ha!
