INSPIRATIONAL CORNER
Moments...
Lord, help me in my Daily Walk,
To truly shine for You.
Not just a voice,
that shouts,'Rejoice.'
but by the things I do.
Some moments it is easy.
Some moments lost, then found.
and so I pray,
to find a way,
that Your Love may abound.
Without Love there is nothing,
without Love, just a sham.
When Jesus died,
and Heaven cried,
it was Your Love for man.
Lord, help me when I stumble,
so seeking Your direction.
Let Your Light, in me, shine true,
to mirror Your Reflection.

1 Corinthians 13:12-13
"'For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as I am known.
And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."

Dr. Nina,
I am really sad and confused right now. A guy that I thought really liked me, has stopped calling me and is nonresponsive to my text and calls. It's driving me crazy because I don't know what happened and I feel totally used. We didn't see each other all of the time but when he wanted to get together, I was available and maybe that was the problem. I don't know..I am just so confused. What can I do now? How can I stop feeling so used?

Sara,
I am sorry for the pain you are feeling right now. It sounds like this guy had a different interpretation of your relationship. I believe he knew how you felt towards him and took advantage of your vulnerability. You said that you feel used so this tells me that you did things with him that you probably wouldn't do with just anyone.
So, what do you do now? I think this is a good time to reflect on this relationship and look at the possible red flags that you may have avoided because of how much you liked him. This will help you next time you get into a relationship.
As far as how you are feeling, you just need to work on accepting that he's not coming back to you and even if he tried, I wouldn't take him back. He will most likely play this game once again with you. You also have to forgive yourself for the choices you made when you were with him that you probably regret now. You also need to forgive him when you are ready. It's not good to hold on to anger, hurt, and resentment because it will only make you feel worse in the end. It will take time for your wounds to heal but they will. For now, find comforting friends to help and support you through this and don't rush into another relationship until you have healed.
Dr. Nina
