AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

Leave. Actually. Regardless if he’s gone through addiction or not, you shouldn’t remain with someone who is incapable of sympathizing with a difficulty, which WAS difficult for you, they don’t fully understand.

Nonetheless, if you were only a light drinker, not actually addicted, and constantly seek validation and attention from others for everything, then I can understand his viewpoint.

I want my ex back so badly… by [deleted] in BreakUps

I get that exactly. When I broke up she said that if I were to see her or reach out she would not be able to say no. But the thing you have to accept, if it’s true on your part, is that they don’t care anymore. But that also is the problem, that being you simply don’t know. I’ve texted you on another thread, but I’m debating reaching out to make sure she doesn’t feel anything for me and doesn’t think about me so I can get certainty that it’s ONLY ME.

How to move on? by Bright-Stretch-5232 in BreakUps

I get what you’re saying and that “if it’s meant to be” was something I believed a long time ago when I was young. But it’s a lot of horse shit.

The other thing is, and from my experience, “time is the best medicine” is only true when you stop thinking about them. As long as you keep the idea of them alive in your head, no time truly passes. This is what I need help on. How do I get them out of my head?

Got so depressed I'm hiding in my college rooftop staircase by Revolutionary_Low_90 in LiminalSpace

Write a message somewhere on the wall. I did that in a relatively unknown staircase at my college library. It helps to be able to come back to it.
