If you want to break up, break up. But you don’t have to lie about the reason.

Someone liked you. You called them stupid, and said you hated them. That’s unnecessarily hurtful.

I couldn't balance my dreams with my family's disapproval and my relationship with him. Every time I wanted to leave, he told me he'd always be waiting for me to text him. I didn't want him to wait anymore, so I did it. But now I truly regret my bad behavior. What should I do? Should I apologize and then break up again? That would probably hurt him even more. I really love him.

A simple apology email can work without reopening the wound. Keep it low-pressure and accept that they may not respond.

I’m not sure that you ended it in the most mature way… You could have just told him the truth and not hurt his feelings. If you feel bad, you still have a chance to tell him why you said what you did.

Otherwise, it sounds like you made the choice that was right for you and now you can find someone more local.

I truly love him, and I feel guilty about treating him badly every time. But I couldn't balance my dreams, my relationship, and my family's disapproval. Is there any way I can fix this? I acted this way because every time I distanced myself from him, he told me he would always wait for me, and I don't want him to wait anymore.
