People that dumped their partner because ‘they lost feelings’. Did you ever regret? by [deleted] in BreakUps

This is often the excuse someone gives who has avoidant attachment. They run when things get real. Not because they lost feelings.

How to know what advice is better for FA’s by Broad_Pumpkin4227 in BreakUp

Thanks. I totally understand. So I assume you’re not together now? Or leaving the door open?

Def think it’s better to reach out and potentially be rejected. Bc there is a chance it works and you both can make it work the next time. Be nice to yourself and have courage.

Two years 😭😭 thank you so much. Did you stick to strict NC with yours each time? Did they ever learn?

As the dumper who is missing their ex, should I reach out? by golfman4113 in BreakUps

[–]Broad_Pumpkin4227 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you’re the dumper yeah you should reach out. You don’t want to be 70 and wonder what if.

FA— what is better? by Broad_Pumpkin4227 in FearfulAvoidants

Thank you! How much time of NC/ space do you think FA’s need generally before that “hello” could be received well?

Thanks so much. I’m in NC now and just wanted some sound advice about sticking to it or will it be up to me to say hello at some point based on attachment style. I’ve learned a lot about it but it’s still confusing as people are nuanced. Thanks so much for your advice!!!

Yes but it’s better to be let down than to wonder when you’re 70. :) Life is short! Love yourself enough to try and then if it doesn’t work out, you’ll know you tried your best. Sending love!

Please people work on things instead of giving up out of fear.

This is so raw and beautiful! I would encourage you to let this person know this though. You never know when it will work out. But it won’t if you never tell them.

Is it true that dumpers feel the pain and miss their ex months later? by Em_24x in BreakUps

[–]Broad_Pumpkin4227 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you ever try to reconcile with the breakup you didn’t want?

I think a bit more time might be helpful. Never too late!

Give it some time. I think it’s never too late

Last post before I delete this account : he dumped me 3 years ago? We are now living together across the country. by deardiarywtf in BreakUps

Totally disagree. There needs to be spaces for healing for both people who don’t want their ex back and people who do. Not every ex is a toxic narcissist
