She's clearly hurting, but how much of the demise of her relationship is down to her issues and not his? One never knows what goes on behind closed doors.
Dee, that's exactly how I got over my break-up a few years ago. I looked at myself and wondered what I could do improve on things. I went out on long walks, brisk uphill walking, which then turned to jogging, mainly to get those feel-good endorphins going. It improved my mood immeasurably. I had my teeth whitened, bought a whole new wardrobe and pampered myself from head to toe on a daily basis. I ate very heathily and after a while I began to see a change.
Ms Armstrong is wasting her time crying over spilt milk. She needs to do something about her appearance, agreed, and when she does, she will naturally acquire more confidence.
I hope she finds happiness again and doesn't let bitterness and jealousy eat away at her.
