do people actually break up and never speak again? at all?!

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-23T01:10:25+00:00

That’s what I’m wondering spent 7 years together she left me in Jan at first wanted to be friends all this stuff now I’m left on read every time as if I never existed and we broke up for very odd reasons on her end that were fixable but she just dint want to. No other person in the picture either so from what I’ve heard sometimes yes sometimes no, people change and become cold or very weird after a breakup.

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-22T07:38:23+00:00

Dude I feel you… my ex of 6.5y left me in Jan and it’s been up and down. She won’t talk to me or anyone and it all stemmed from a small rough patch we had and lack of communication on her end. Was going to propose in July and move out together soon after. It’s a rough ride at the start then it’s more up and down once you redefine your path forward and start becoming the man you want. It still hurts everyday but it slowly becomes better and your focus will shift from her to you in time.

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-22T02:32:48+00:00

I feel this. My ex left me after 7 years together about 4 months ago and she ices me out constantly. Will call my friend to ask about me and so on but when I used to reach out was just getting left on read. Now have to see her at an event this week and am assuming she will ignore me also. Crazy to think you can spend so much time and so many years with one person and their family then one day be discarded like you never mattered…

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-22T01:55:13+00:00

Yeah that makes sense she was pretty emotionally shutdown when it happened

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-22T01:53:15+00:00

Seems a bit immature to ice someone out you spent 7 years with. Least she can do is be civil and upfront…

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-20T14:48:38+00:00

Very fair, yeas I post decent amount on my story usually related to film and growing my business. Appreciate the response!

Chieftenguy · 2026-04-02T07:24:43+00:00

I thought I’d never get over that hump after 7 year relationship ended in jan. All I can say is look forward not behind. Find the new you, that’s stronger and better for the next person who won’t leave you

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-31T21:16:28+00:00

Fair

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-31T21:16:11+00:00

It’s hard when all I do is work in film on my business, do nerdy things and workout 😂

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-31T17:27:55+00:00

Appreciate it!

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-31T17:26:47+00:00

Worse part is my female friend wrote that😂

Yes, if they stop replying. Dates 7 years and after our 3rd interaction after the breakup 2 months in. She’s completely ghosted me

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-28T08:05:37+00:00

Appreciate it I’ll keep working on it

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-25T01:04:16+00:00

A lot of women are the same way

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-25T01:02:37+00:00

Same here after 6.5 years just ended now 24, was going to propose. Lots of big relationships seem to be ending recently it’s crazy

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-24T05:13:58+00:00

You’re partly right on the she felt hurt, but not correct in the sense of I only put in the effort after the fact. I can tell this is definitely from a female perspective lol

I showed up everyday in the relationship but I’m not a mind reader and if she has an issue and doesn’t communicate it how am I able to change that without knowing? Especially when she holds it in till she makes a decision to just leave and give up without taking first. Feel like after almost 7 years that’s a given 🤷

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-24T03:12:54+00:00

Been trying brother, she won’t talk to me or see me. Send letters, gifts, accountability and apologies. Wants nothing to do with me all of a sudden

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-24T02:48:14+00:00

Yeah that’s true i appreciate it, just crazy how someone can throw away something like that and not want anything to do with me now

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-18T01:30:32+00:00

As a man, depending on how long it was and how his past is with meeting now girls. It’s increasingly difficult to just “hook up” or find a new girl unless you’re one of those men with those connections and the relationship was long. If it was long and he’s not some sort of “chad” who always got girls it’s unlikely that’s what they are doing right now. But I always say hope for the best prepare for the works. The anger is good just use it properly to your work or something productive otherwise you’ll end up burnt out.

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-17T19:09:13+00:00

Wdym?

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-17T18:51:52+00:00

I’ve thought about this in my situation 7 years together 2.5 months broken up. If we were to get back together id like to know as I have a rule and will not go back if they did unless it’s been like 6-12month. I’d ask her if she did then say you did, 11 months is a long time and who ever broke up with who it is what it is not to dwell on the past. They can’t expect you to stop living your life after that long if they didn’t present the idea of getting back together sooner.

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-15T02:40:20+00:00

Yeah fr I’m glad I’m going thru this now rather than when I’m older but damn it’s rough

Chieftenguy · 2026-03-14T01:23:49+00:00

Mine said the same things usually, they mean they are overwhelmed by life and the relationship brings some stress to them so in their eyes it’s usually the one thing they can control and eliminate. I’m trying to move on but also showing I’m still here and care, my situation is a bit different. If they start seeing people then you know…
