Should you share with people your breakup story? Should anyone around you know exactly what happened? Is it even good to tell people or it’s better to keep it to yourself? In this espisode, I will answer these questions.

Must you tell your story? No. It’s your life and you have only to do what’s right for you. If you feel embarrassed, you don’t have to tell people about that. Also, people might be a lit bit annoying sometimes and ask questions you don’t want to answer. And yet, let me tell you what I believe you should share your story.

First of all, a breakup is something natural. It happens to people all over the world. Many people think that if their relationship failed, they’re a failure, that it’s something they should hide. This is wrong because they are a lot of people who are experiencing the same and it’s doesn’t say anything about them. If you want to share your story but you are afraid people think you are a failure or judge you, don’t worry.

The healing process is long, it might take days, weeks, and sometimes even months to fully recover, and believe me, you don’t want to do it alone, it will take you much more than it should, and it will be much harder than it already is. You will need help throughout the way and your friends and family will be there if you just let them know.

The second reason is that when you tell your story and what you feel it will give you a good feeling, a feeling of relief. You don’t want to keep it all for yourself, you will feel overwhelmed. Sometimes your friends and family will be able to give you a different perspective on the situation, give you useful tips, or just be there for you when you need it. Holding things inside and try to hide from the environment what you feel can be hard and it will harm you more than it will help you.

A good reason to tell your story and involve other people is when you might have things to close with your ex, things about money, or if you have children. When it comes to negotiation and your rights, you can’t allow emotion to affect you and this is why it’s best to have someone you trust to help you with that and not to do it by yourself. Because emotions can lead you to a bad place.

Now if you decided to tell your story and you ask yourself who should know about it. Well, I think you need to tell the people who are close to you and the people you trust, they will help you and be there for you. But also, when you are at work and you are in contact with people, they will probably see something is wrong with you. So, it’s better to tell them you are going through a tough period so they can know you aren’t going crazy without reason. But you don’t have to tell everything in detail. And again, it’s okay to say you aren’t ready to talk about it right now and people will leave you alone. But don’t hide everything because you won’t get the results you want, and it will just hurt you.

Let’s recap, you don’t have to tell your story, but if you will. You will receive help, support, you will feel relief and it might help you if you have money to children issues. Choose whom you want to tell your story and what to tell.
