Is this normal?

[Msmarie0917]

I went out last night and had an absolute BLAST! Being around friends and family, rarely had me thinking about my ex..his new gf...OR the situation. It was the most fun I've had in almost a year. But then I wake up this morning and it's the very first thing on my mind and my stomach is turning out of control. I feel hurt all over again like I didn't have the best time ever last night....is this normal?

Yes - that in essence is called an emotional roller coaster.

 

Absolutely normal.

it's early marie. you were still infuriated just a few days ago, and it was a nasty break-up and follow up. its perfectly normal to have ups and downs. i'm just relieved you're out there and starting to realise just how much better life is without those two.

 

you made the first giant step, you're getting there. the downs usually taper out gradually.
