Hi All!
I am new here and just struggling right now! I had cancer and I am 3 years in remission. I am 45 and I went through chemo and surgery.
Shortly after cancer, a friend asked me out on a date. We dated for almost three years and he accepted me as me, until two days ago. After a little spat, he stopped talking to me. When I asked him if we could talk, he said no we are done. I asked if we would continue being friends (we were friends for over 10 years prior) and he said no, we need to go our separate ways. Then, he said some hurtful things that destroyed me.
Is love possible after cancer and at this age? I have never been married because of cancer and I am feeling super lonely.
Thank you for any advice!
