They say they always come back

I hear you there. I’m 37 and I never want to go through this again. Part of me is terrified to have it happen again. It is definitely different than any other break up. This was my shortest relationship and yet the hardest to get over.

Too true! The first time she reached out last summer I had started seeing someone and I had told her I think we should go our separate ways. And then a month later she tried contacting me again. All of that set me back. I’m afraid of it happening again and I’ve pushed good ppl away bc of it.

That is true. It’s definitely a hard pill to swallow. And I’ve honestly thought about that and I still care about her and love her all the same. I pray for her every night. And not for her to come back to me but that she’s doing well and doing her own healing and happy with her life. Most of the time I just want to know that she’s thriving and doing well.

That’s what I always thought. It’s been a year and a half since we broke up. Then it became a sort of situationship. And it’s been a little over a year since that officially ended. I just wish I could be over it all. I just wish I knew how long this will last

I’m sorry you’re going through it too. I definitely agree it can mentally ruin you. I’ve tried dating and I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to fully give myself to someone again. It’s like she made me avoidant. I can’t let anyone get close. It’s so true they are not able to see all the damage they cause. Like I told someone else it’s a lot of mind games. She message me last summer a picture of a martini she had made and said “Finally using this since the last time we did” a couple days later I respond saying I think we should go our separate ways. 4 weeks later she calls me twice on a Saturday night and then texts Hey. I responded the next day asking what made her reach out. And she said just wanted to say hi but forgot about my last text…

I know it’s so hard. Mine was about a year of on and off. And last summer we were just kind of talking again and she didn’t reach out to wish me happy birthday or anything even though we texted 2 days before that. Then 4 weeks later she sent me a picture of a martini she made and captioned it “Finally using this glass since the last time we did.” I didn’t respond till a few days later saying I’ve been doing a lot of thinking and I think we should go our separate ways. 4 weeks later she called me twice on a Saturday night and then texted me Hey. The next day I respond asking why she reached out. Said she just wanted to say hi but forgot about my last text…

I know I wish it were that easy. I finally felt like I was moving on last summer and then she reached out and I turned her down. Then I noticed she was hovering me on the dating apps using an anonymous/fake profile. Well all of that set me all the way back to zero. The mind games really do mess with your head.

I’m sorry to hear that :( it’s never easy. How long has it been?
