Piggybacking off “How To Move On When You See Your Ex Every Day,” Chelsea responds to three listener's letters that relate to the topic. Instead of shelling out advice, Chelsea tries to point out what each letter is not communicating despite their confessional nature. Chelsea jumpstarts the episode with her usual psychobabble, wondering "where should I begin?,” as if this were a therapy session she desperately needs. She talks about the difficulty of asking for help, the guilt of talking about yourself and why it’s so important to have someone or at least some outlet that you can turn to that asks, What are you feeling? Where does it hurt? What is going on?At 17:30, we hear from The Queen of Sorrow, a letter writer who’s confessed her love to her best friend only to have him admit that he’s been crushing on another girl. Now she has to watch them flirt in class and she feels betrayed. In our second letter, at 29:18, Chelsea responds to A Large Amount of Emotional Baggage, a woman who was betrayed by her ex and best friend who were sleeping together. She finds out that her entire friend group had been lying to her about what was going on and so she breaks ties with her boyfriend, all her friends, and loses contact with her parents in the aftermath for awhile too. The only thing is, her new friends have begun to hang out with her old friends and she’s scared that putting herself in a social setting with them will trigger her post-heartbreak feelings of self-hatred. At 46:13, DTF writes in from Instagram. She’s just blocked her friend and love interest on social media and is livid, not to mention confused. After asking him, she discovered he, too, was “dtf,” only when he told her he saw her like he sees all his friends, she felt wronged. `Chelsea gets to heart of it.If you have a question, write in at Chelsea@breakupward.com—Sign up for Chelsea’s newsletter at: bit.ly/tyhbletterFind Chelsea’s website at: www.breakupward.comWork with Chelsea at: www.breakupward.com/shopConnect and send in your questions and/or letters on Instagram.com/thankyouheartbreak or by email Chelsea@breakupward.com__Referenced in this episode:“How To Move On When You See Your Ex Every Day,” by Chelsea Leigh Trescott via The Huffington Posthttps://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/advice-column-how-to-move-on-from-an-ex-you-see-every_us_582d4752e4b0d28e55214a99“Where Should We Begin?” by Esther Perel via iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/where-should-we-begin-with-esther-perel/id1237931798?mt=2https://www.estherperel.com/podcastClothes to Heart, Founded by Allison Trescotthttps://clothestoheart.org/Chase the Rainbow by Poorna Bellhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/147116070X/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0A Manual for Heartache by Cathy Rentzenbrinkhttps://www.amazon.com/Manual-Heartache-Cathy-Rentzenbrink/dp/1509824456/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1533273531&sr=1-1&keywords=a+manual+for+heartacheMaya Angelou, "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.”
