Lookback: 2 years after breakup

“reach out after 2 years of breakup”

I lost her due to my emotional numbness caused by depression, and now I'm flooded with unprocessed feelings after seeing her again

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had acknowledged and processed my emotions back then"
If I could tell you one thing
"don't let fear of vulnerability hold you back from being honest with your partner"
