How do I heal from walking away from someone I love ? My ex of 2 years cheated on me and manipulated me by pretending to be fake people and moving me to a different state and after eight months separated he has been and is going to therapy and has begged for forgiveness and another chance. In the time we have been apart my ex husband and father of my children has actively pursued me to reconcile our family (I was with my ex husband for 29 years) how do I forget my ex boyfriend who I still love deeply? I understand I may be trauma bonded to both but I love my ex bf so much but at same time want my kids to have their family. My ex has agreed to let me go even tho he loves me and my heart is torn between what I should do and what I want to do. My fam/friends don’t want me with my ex husband but also wouldn’t accept me with my ex boyfriend who also caused so much pain
