You're breaking up with me?
I couldn't believe it. I had never been dumped before, and it stung. But what hurt more was that this was a guy I really cared about. I was so devastated that some mornings it was hard to get up and get through the day.
At first I was so absorbed in the emotion of it all that I didn't even think I could turn to God or to Mary Baker Eddy's book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures the way I usually do when something's not going right. But feelings of rejection and missing this guy went on for too long, so I called a Christian Science practitioner. I guess I wanted more than just to get over my ex-boyfriend. Deep down I knew that what I really wanted was to feel closer to God.
