Sending Unsent Letters To Your Ex Is Great For Healing

I have heard that sending an unsent letter to your ex is very helpful for the healing and grieving process. It can be loving or angry. Any emotions you are feeling you can put in your unsent letter to the ex. I tried that exercise this morning after taking the breakup extremely hard. I have to say that it works and has helped me process my grief greatly. I am still not over my ex boyfriend though. I am still in love with him and that part of the healing will take time as I am not sure if we'll ever get back together again even though I hope we will.

I recommend for your healing journey giving the unsent letter to your ex a shot.

Here was my unsent letter to my ex boyfriend. (Using an initial instead for privacy.) 💌

Dear K, I hope you're taking good care of yourself. I hope that everything has been going well in your life. You deserve that. I have kept my promise to you and have been staying strong and taking care of myself. I have been chasing after my goals and dreams. I want to be honest, I miss you so much and I am still very much in love with you. You're still my sweetheart. I want you to know that I am not mad at you. How could I be? You were doing what was for the best and you didn't want to neglect me. It wasn't your fault. It was just bad timing. I would've wanted you to chase your dreams. It broke my heart, but it was for the best. I know that we fought very hard, and did everything we could to save things. It just wasn't the right time. I want to say thank you for everything, and I feel so blessed that I met you and that I had a wonderful relationship with you, and that we got to create many memories together.

I was very happy with you, and I hold the memories that we did get to share near and dear to my heart. I cherished you and the memories that we did get to make together. I know that the night you left me that you didn't feel like you were a good partner, but you were a great partner to me. Honestly, you were the best partner that I ever had, and I am so happy to have fallen in love with you. I felt like the luckiest girlfriend at the time, and I am so glad that you were my first love, and my first kiss. You're my best friend. You were the love of my life. I forgive you for breaking my heart. I know that you didn't want to and that it was hard for you too. I will continue to keep my promise. I know you'll go far in your life. Goodbye, my love.
