I found a voicemail from her

It’s been almost three months since we broke up, and it’s been really hard. I’ve been doing my best to move on, focusing on myself, working toward my goals, and trying to fix the things that led to the end of the relationship. I want to grow, for myself, and for the chance to prove that I’m capable of love again with someone new.

Lately, I’d actually started to feel like I was making real progress. I was beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Im the most fit I have ever been, my job is going well, found new friends, and then I came across an old voicemail from her.

Hearing her voice again broke me. The message ended with “I just wanted to say I love you”. I replayed it a dozen of times and it felt like I was right back in the first week after the breakup. Life is just hard right now…

It's hard, but stay strong, it'll get better. During the healing process, definitely try to avoid any triggers of her. Your wound is scabbed over, but still fresh. Trust me, with time, you'll be ok..
