Hey @Anonymous I am so sorry to hear about how you were treated in your last relationship. Break ups in general are extremely tough, especially if you are left feeling like the relationship negatively impacted you. 

Echoing what @celestialdreamer said, it is completely a reflection of his character and not yours. Although now is definitely a good time to try and fill up your cup with things that make you feel like your best self, it is totally okay not to be okay. Go easy on yourself during this period and just know that time is a wonderful healer. I know it is a cliché but it's a cliché for a reason.

I also wanted to add that it shows incredible self-awareness that you are able to detect that you are not feeling as confident as you were previously and the fact that you are coming on here to share how you are feeling and to seek guidance is advice is amazing - you should be extremely proud of yourself.
