Join the club. Pull up a seat and enjoy the over 40's life! Seriously though, I'm a FIRM believer in, as long as you have breath in your lungs, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth etc chances. Don't despair, honey. And this too shall pass. It is NEVER too late to get it together. NEVER.

((More hugs)) It seems like both of you are having a hard time letting go. It sounds like you know what you want and need to do.
On a safety note, please be careful with a situation like this. You need to make your wishes clear. You don't want this to turn into a stalker type thing.No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. -Eleanor Roosevelt

I hope you seriously seek out professional help, even if to talk your feelings through to an unjudgmental ear. I had friend who sounded just like you, but things did not end well for her. She didn't feel she had anyone who cared about her, yet hundreds showed up for her funeral. Sadly she had taken her own life. She suffered from depression. I'm just saying...we all go through dark periods and those periods pass. But for those who seem stuck in that tunnel, professional help is the way. Good luck!

Thank you Micheli! As I stated somewhere up there, I have an appointment on Wednesday with a psychiatrist. I've never considered suicide, but I do know that depression has a mind of its' own, so to speak. I'm reaching out before it gets too bad!
ChaChaDiva - you're absolutely right. Though I have asked him a million times not to contact me again, I have always eventually answered, unblocked my number, or responded to a text message. I'm praying this time will be different and I will stick to my guns. I know he's not what I need, and again, I think I just keep going back because I'm afraid of being alone for the rest of my life.

I know the feeling. Been out of control most of my life and just now is serious about tying these loose ends together. I have had a problem saving also but is now over that...Im getting too old! Lately, I have been on a drum roll saving. I need to pay down credit cards and I'm also interested in buying a house....just don't know where I want to live....
I'm a late bloomer but I'm all right with that now...you'll be alright just give yourself time.AMERICAN GIRL!

melaniemat-
I kinda stumbled into this thread...so I do hope you take what I have to say to heart.
I've read and reread the posts and agree with much of what has been 'said'. Above all the suggestions that have been offered thus far, the one thing that has resonated the loudest [to me] is finding that unjudgemental ear. Could be in the form of a therapist...or someone that YOU know that will give it to you straight, no chaser.
Stick to your guns. Don't reestablish contact with him. YOU have the control. I do hope that your sessions with the psychiatrist are going well. Sincerely sending positive thoughts your way. YOU are worth this energy.

I have found the website below very helpful in understanding relationship drama from all perspectives and providing good guidelines to pursue healthier relationships. The article below deals with not contacting your ex.
