I’m thinking about ending my relationship.
That feeling you get in your stomach when your heart is broken. It’s like all the butterflies just died.
And their death makes the sadness of the heart break much worse.
To add insult to injury, now your digestive system has to go through hell, too.

When we are afraid, ...Read More Read more »
